if he's going to go to the extent of chopping the engine bay to pieces to fit a race 4 cyl, im sure he can beef up the suspension in the front to compensate for the weight  + Weld a solid steel tray to the back to even it out

we tried a 302w and c4 in farm hack wt had to bolt the transfer case staright on the back of the gear box, the shifter was some distance behind the front seat,kinda worked. Turned an awesome little paddock basher into a terrifying trouser wetter, fun till the till the trannie case tore out.
bent the chassis too. trying to find a photo of it. the engine fitted in fine if you could find a shorter gear box it would ba much better and they only weigh 210kg
