Come on though - would you bother with that engine if you'd gone to the hassle of getting it behind the front seats? V10 everyday... oh yeah you've got one Ninja Whistle LOL


Apparently you would 'cause we built one LOL

Ahhh but that depends where you put the engine in the engine bay - mine is a long way back, in fact about as far back as we could go with the standard subframe being kept in one piece (ish...). Not all of that weight is added in front of the wheels and it is also not added all that high up either. Moving some weight further back in the car should keep the balance the same.

I do understand what you are saying though, but you should try before you buy Wink
