Modify the engine which may cost a lot to return a little or modfiy the car the take a better engine. I favour plan B as did our customer when he brought in his Morris Minor. Various options were discussed but a Ford Zetec 2.0l from a Mondeo was the power plant of choice.\u00a0 Rear wheel drive conversions with this engine are well documented and it&#8217;s a nice tractable and readily available engine so all we had to do was work out how to make it fit!<\/p>\n<p>There were a few small problems such as the steering rack being in the way and the engine bay not being long enough but as each challenge develops so do the solutions. It&#8217;s lovely watching a project like this grow. There&#8217;s still a long way to go but here&#8217;s a few snaps of the story so far.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-168\" title=\"DSCF1573\"
