Buick V6 fits 1200 quite easily, see our V6 article, dunno how one with a turbo fits

Power to weight inferior to a built SR20DET/CA18DET or even to a stock Nissan Spec V engine 200 hp -- but you can't find those for $400-500

Options so far i am toying with:

CARB:
Vq30 with carburetor conversion kit Holley 500cfm 2 barell
Buick v6
Vortec v6 with carb conversion kit. Holley of some sort

EFI:
Vg30
Vq30 or vq35

None except the Buick are going to be under $500

Go for the best-bang-per-buck. I'd guess you can find Ford 5.0 cars running for $500 and those engines weigh the same as Buick V6. They fit the 1200 easily except radiator needs to be moved forward (behind the grille)
