Infiniti q45 and chevy 2500 pickup 6.0 (ally block) are popular budget v8's here in the states. There are adapter kits to run all kinds of transmissions with both of these engines too. I don't know if these are options if you are in the UK but that's something to look into.
The front stretch was done by completely rebuilding the front of the car from the firewall forward, all done in box tubing, lengthened by around 3 1/2" to 4".

American V8 would be nice but not too many around here at a reasonable price.
