I love my 6's but I gave up trying to make one work in the space (mainly height ) constraints.

I am currently building with a 1.8 CVH, with the intention of converting to Zetec after IVA.

Torque is not a big requirement in a light car like the Roadster, hence bike engines are very popular with their High power output.

The rover is quite a large unit, there are more compact 8's out there if you want to go that route.
