Another swap that I personally like is the K24 Honda. Yes it looks kind of silly in that big engine bay, but you will be putting the engine weight behind the front axle. Not sure if that officially constitutes a "mid" engine, but that a huge plus for road racing, autox, etc. You will also be shedding well-over 100lbs of engine weight compared to the L6 with nearly double the power (in NA form!). If you just want a street car, and plan to drive it more like a grand tourer then id go with the 6 or LS. If you want a small, light, great handling Z with more power than you would expect from a 4-banger, K24 might be for you. Only other negative I can think of is.... well... it sounds like a honda. Like all Honda's, they kinda sound like lawnmowers IMHO.
