You have to Cosworth it. It would be hilarious. That much power with no weight over the rear wheels, what a hoot!

My grandad has one of those for his business years ago. I had a keen eye on it for my 17th birthday and wanted to cosworth it. My cousin wrecked it before I could get my hands on it. Prat!

I would love to do that. I would buy a 2.9 donor for the job but i would do it properly. I would fit the rear diff and suspension unit plus i would lower the back by maybe two inches to make it ride level (actually i am going to do that anyway)
