That is an excellent idea. However, there is one for sale on racecarads.com 
witha turbo fiat motor and it isnt much $$$
You need to check it out before you start your own project.

Hi.   as I have toasted the tranny in 1994 Impala SS after only 38K
miles.  I am considering looking for an autocross car/cart. I hate to
stop racing the impala  but as it is wife.coms transportation and soon
to be a big baby carriage I cant risk torching any more bands, sprags or
clutches.  especially at 1000 clams.

I was thinking of buying or finding an older rolling chassis from Malibu
Grand Prix.  live rear axle, I/S inthe front 4 wheel disc brakes.  i
would then shoehorn a small inline4 with and auto tranny or a large
inline four motorcycle engine with sequential gearbox..  normally they
run 25 horse Briggs with centrifugal clutch  : (

Anybody know anybody at Malibu Grand Prix?  is this a good idea?  can
the chassis handle the extra HP?
