tracktoy build; considering a FC (again). what powerplant?

i miss having a trackday FC, considering building one up again:

my personal car background has involved more than 10 RX7's, but this car will not have a rotary engine.

I would really enjoy a EJ257 boxxer engine, but i dont think it will fit the FC bay.

i have a spare 2JZGTE longmotor hanging out in the garage, i could also sell it and obtain a LSx setup instead

is it possible to have a FC setup to 2600 lbs dry without driver (stripped, will start from manual window, no sunroof FC shell, no power anything) with either driveline (on a consumer budget)

power would not be more than 400-500 rwhp, 2jz would run a small single (30 or 35R size), and LSX would get NA bolt ons+cam+chip.

which setup would work out better for a trackday toy?

hard to beat an LS1 with a T56.
