I think you'll find it very difficult to get that much power to the ground in front drive and a 1300 lb car, a D series with 130hp is really quick and with the right final drive is a comfortable cruiser. It's also pretty easy to get over 100 hp at the wheels with a modified 1275.
If you go with a D series, look for a frame kit from McGee Custom Minis.
Let us know which way you go, we'd love to see pics of the build.

Or he could go this route. I sure it will handle 200+ HP.
Yes, I've watched Binky from the beginning....there is a 4wd kit available from MiniTec too, they had 400hp in that one.
They also offer a rear drive V-6 kit, a local friend has built one and I got to drive it - with "only" 250 hp at the wheels, it was sick how fast it was! He has since added a supercharger!
