(Looks like the Americans have stuffed a 1000hp V8 into a Lotus Exige. A good idea.)

Ha ha ....... now I have been exposed - and you lot thought that the 'Hennessey Hot-up Kit' was my only creation

I wonder if it would be a good idea to stuff a V8 into a Renault 4. There's plenty of room up front (no point messing around with mid mounted). Has anyone done that yet?

It has been done
