Can’t beat a 27 litre tank/plane engine, I think he had to use an auto bus gearbox to handle the torque.
And a step up ratio to make it go more than 50mph.
I’d forgotten that.
Rolls Royce apparently (see Ugly Car thread)

I’ve been a passenger in a VTEC conversion, and they are rapid!
Over here they usually extend the front of the car by about 3-4" to fit everything in, or use a clubman front, or cut the front off and use a space frame and a fibreglass flip front or summat.
It was impressive, but I’m a bit of a purist and like an A series in the mini, and just tuned/modded etc.
I really miss mine!
I’m not a fan of putting a foreign engine in a British classic. It can get out of hand.

The 4 spotlights were pretty standard even if they weren’t hooked up.
