If the starting point was a modern corvette, a 5.3L V8 aluminum-block engine from an SUV with cylinder deactivation would swap in, with a little ECM tweaking. That would return some seriously good fuel economy numbers tuned correctly... And it would still be light, and have reasonable power when required.
