Hmm, all good suggestions, but still, about $2000 from the junkyard,
without all the other necessary bits, and some, well, they just won't
fit without bonnet modifications. Overhead cam inline engines are
destined to be a really tight squeeze without bodywork. (!) V-6s are a
nice idea, though, with some creative header work.... (!)
Cheers, all.
