Wetdog, Update:
Engine Choice:
Seriously, the choice is still a transverse 4,  I just like the noise they make, that's an important aspect for me & that's why I have chosen that particular combination, plus to build a good strong engine will not cost the Earth!

Cheers

My father bought a Daewoo 800cc 3 cylinder Matiz . It sounds like an E type but I always thought it was a gutless wonder.Then one day I kept it in third and all of a sudden it went, the revs doubled, I nearly passed wind.
Not in a frame but in the front of a Morgan copy if I find a write off.
