One of the biggest drawbacks to doing a C body is the lack of decent torsion and sway bars. Expect to spend $$ for custom pieces or adapting other, off the shelf types. Rear leafs are easy enough. Other option is to totally redo the suspension with something else like coil overs or air ride.
Other issue is weight. No matter how big the engine, youw ill alway sbe at a disadvantage against a similarly powered car.
However, nothing will beat the "touring" aspect of a C barge crusing down the highway.
If you must scoop the hood, try the early Super Bee twin scoop style or 1st generation GTX twin scoops for a more subdued look. Both are available in the aftermarket.
