If it's a 3.8 then why couldn't you mod it? Fox Chassis is a Fox Chassis...just cross reference parts.

Are you serious? Just about anything you could do with a 4.6 or a 5.0and a few things you can't. Hell look at supersixmotorsports.com

After that, look to maximumotorsports.com for your suspension. I've been working with them from overseas and they've been extensively helpful. They're flippin sweet.
