buying the gt is only cost efective if you don't plan on having a built v8 because then u will hav ejust as much work and it will probraly be cheeper.

I agree with this, you'll spend a lot trying to get the car up the task of supporting a V-8 unless your just going to build it into a track car, and I do mean a trailered race car.
