I reckon the 260Z 2 seater is the one to use as a basis for the 250GTO kit. They have a stronger chassis than the 240Z. Good original 240Zs are selling for big money these days but the 260Z are a bit more reasonably priced.

An LS1 would be awesome and probably weigh less than the original L26 motor. There have been a few 240 and 260 Z cars with Chevs transplanted into them over the years. I think someone in the US was even selling a conversion kit.

Cheers
