There are a couple of Mad Poms on here that would be able to help decide what suits your SVA requirements.

Does your kit come with mounts to suit any V8s, or will any engine need to be custom mounted?

Anyway, I'd put a Ford windsor in and you can't go too far wrong. Parts are cheap enough and easy to come by, and you can have from 250 to 400hp with ease.
