if your thinking going for a bike engine i would advise the busa 1300 there better than the zzr1400, my mates got one in his mini and it goes!!

Busa's chain drive?? Will be hard to mate it up to a car diff, whereas the zzr1400 is a shafty so will mate up easy.

Possibly.

Hi all,

She runs!!! Just fired her up in the workshop after checking fluids etc... Fuel is a bit stale but that didnt stop her. Defo need to find out a little more as it has also been dry sumped. Going to get intouch with Scholar and see if they have any info from the engine number (it has a scholar rocker cover).

I have seen bike engine mated to a sierra diff and its not too difficult to set up.

Im glad the F40 thread is getting some attention! Pictures of your mates would be really appreciated! :smiley:

Road legal could be possible if i can get the doc's saying the chassis was produced in 1976, then it doesnt need an IVA as its over 10 years old, and if you can still register as day time only?! then i wont need lights etc?!

Cheers
