Talking Anyone fitted one of these?

Has anyone looked at or considered fitting one of these.

Vauxhall based slant 4 pot that lotus stuck a twin cam head on, fitted in lotus cars ,the sunbeam talbot and the jensen healey. Looks tailor made for the job as it leans to the left of the car away from all the steering. They are are cheapish and come with a decent gearbox zf or getrag.

Food for thought.
