At the garage that dropped the engine in for me, I spotted this picture up on the wall. Apparently the two cars belong to his sons who built and race them. Running about 220bhp from 2 litre ford engines, rwd and generally a bit mental! Looks like fun

He said cos it was RWD all the mounts had to be made specially anyway, and they had a couple of ford engines spare so decided to put them in there instead of sticking with vauxhall.

Cost, and you have to use a Pinto in that formula.
