Especially when power tuned and that is why no-one does this conversion in
the UK. Also a turbocharged A seres will come pretty close for less money
and hassle (at least in the UK)
But more importanly a lot of power will not make the Spridget a fast car
because it is so aerodynamically inefficient. The difference between 150 and
175 bhp in miles an hour is low single figures.
If you want a Spridget to go quick then drop the weight, aim for around
120bhp and work very hard on a number of small aerodynamic improvements - all
with an A series engine.
