BTW, that's not an AWD SVX. It's FWD. 

So rear mounted V8 driving the front wheels.

You'd still have trouble fitting it under the rear window, and would annihilate the IRS trying to fit it in.

What would be the point?

It's a car I know well, and love.  But it's good at some things, and not at others. 
 

A FWD SVX with no 3.3L and a busted trans has had its heart and soul ripped out. 

Its a heavy chassis, not nimble, with one-off suspension bits and a roof that is held in place by its bonded glass. Every part on it is heavy.  It has no aftermarket support at all.

It's a lousy platform for drag racing, poorly classed for autocross, and MUCH too heavy.

Even if you could make something awesome out of it, it will have no afterlife. 
 

I don't mind a bit if you prove me wrong
