I've a kit car magazine kicking around. It has a MK Indy chassis with a 350bhp Huyabusa turbo engine in it, fits in without any chassis widening or lengthening. More importantly it weighs little in comparison to the likes of a big capacity car engine and gear box. I think this approach is in the spirit of the Lotus seven ethos, rather than dropping in a dirty yank V8 and slosh box.
