Was thinking about this earlier after I remembered Warren saying about a 1.9 CDTi conversion he wants to do/is doing.

Most of the conversions which get done are still the same, C20XE into a B, Z20LEx into a C, that sort of thing.

That is boring.

So, what would you like to see in the future?

Z22SE into B or C
Z18XER 1.8 VVT into a B
Z28NET into something
Z20NET into a C

Guy who I work for occasionally said he can get any sort of spline cutting I need, then he pointed out he's got good contacts at Motec during a conversation about what engines I could put into a Corsa. This thread interests me - I was beginning to think something by Honda...

Sounds good - I was taking the 'what's good in a kit car' approach.

What are B16B's like? The gearbox bolts on the wrong side on them, but a bit of chop chop can solve that problem.

Would need to use the Honda gearbox with custom driveshafts.

Did think about the 1.8 20v too, but no VR6's

Wonder if you could get a 2.0 Ford Cosworth engine to mate up to an FWD gearbox
