I'm toying with the idea of dropping an LS1/2 into a 2007 or newer Rodeo / Colorado.... with a 3 tonne towing capacity. We have one with the new 3.0DT engine but they just don't tow comfortably at 110 when it comes to hills or overtaking. My SS sportwagon does it easy but is lumbered with a 2100kg towing capacity and my car / trailer is right on that limit with fuel on board the trailer. The Colorado (same but for a different badge) in the USA comes with a 5.3 LS engine as an option...... and there are quite a few guys doing the conversion in the states...
