I wouldn't mind attempting or looking into dropping a Mazda 1.8 V6 into a mini.
(Engine out of a Eunos).
That would be a challenge, and a hoot to drive! :D

Looks like twin-cam 16v 4 to me. Check the leads in the middle of the head. The old sodium -valved ones from the Astra that became a Daewoo.


There's only three plugs though :? I think you can just see the timing cover for the other bank just near the blue piece of pipe leading to the pod air filter. :D of course with the little I can see of it it could be anything :lol:

Don't forget the 6 pipes in the fuel injection manifold , when you look at the other shot's you can see the start of the 2nd bank , very narrow V by the looks though .

Yep, I see.

Why would you do that. I think it matbe a little nose heavy. I think youd be better off putting an A-series in Vectra probably go better.
