Bad and goodish news
Went to a local dorset car show this sunday was a great day and had my nissan stagea on a show stand on the way home i got sideswiped by a girl in a corsa fighting a wasp..... end result 2.5k of repairs on my car. 95% sure the insurance is going to write it off. Now the good news... if i buy back the car i can have a nice low millage skyline RB25DET engine to use for my project. its kinda large 30inchs long from back of block to front of pullys think this would fit?
 its 23inch wide but thats with all the stock rubbish on and that can be shrunk down loads. Any ideas welcome!

Someone has built a book car with a Viper engine so anything is possible.
Did you clip her round the ear and say "Like this, dozy cow!"

The length of the engine bay is 685 mm, or almost 27 inches.

Think there's one or two Loco's with similar installs.

Depending how tall you are it may be possible to move the bulkhead and pedal box back to accommodate?
