Honestly... Another car. 
Basically you would just have to go with a new engine, so why not take a good $3500-5000 and buy a 6th Gen Monte with the 3.8, and then have fun with a top-swap.

Those are rare, very hard to find. I look for those when looking for my Monte. I saw an elderly man driving an all white GTP looked Brand spanking new! and i just stared at him .. lol, he must have thought i was a fool...sort of.
