I've been thinking about this too.
What mods are people doing to the 2.4 motor, & what kind of power/torque increase are they getting?
Any pics of the 3.8 V5 conversion?

I saw this one for sale in carsales.com.au, looks like a nice tight fit in the photo, would be excellent conversion if you needed some better towing power.

here it is:

I'd would say E-mail them and ask your questions as they have obviously done the conversion. The kits they have certainly seem comprehensive and they do seem to know what they are talking about.
Would be a nice conversion I think.

Sorry for dredging up old posts but it a subject of interest that seems scarce on information, does any one know of any done with this conversion.

This is about the only example I could find
