Brian,
Modding an Elan is fraught with pitfalls regarding taste and decency, but I'm sure that I can add a further 60k to my build and shoehorn that monster in...... it would be rude not to
Not sure it would actually fit within the width of the engine bay with those injectors hanging off one side on the long necks and that bleeding great bus turbo hanging off the other, perhaps I can just cut through the inner wings? Would need to have some sort of monster gearbox and drive train to take all that torque and perhaps the Spyder frame would need a bit of beefing up and we would need to alter the appearance of the bodyshell to fit everything in, perhaps we could make it look like a Sierra Cosworth?
As Clarkson says "How hard can it be"
BTW: I'm looking forward to taking delivery of my S4 DHC with a weedy little 220bhp Duratec fitted, but it should be a little quicker than this one depicted on Ebay with a zetec
