So what do you think about removing a fine running Weber Twincam and replacing it with a new Ecoboost I4? Duratecs have been put in Elans and so have Alfa engines, etc. I personally think putting a new Ford DI I3 or I4 Ecoboost engine in an Elan would be something Chapman would approve of. My first choice would be the 1.0 I3 engine with more power and torque than the original and with gas mileage that would be incrediable. I also think the 1.6 and 2.0 would also work great. Ford will be supplying these engines in the near future with the ECU/harness/etc. and it shouldn't be too dificult to adapt it to the original 4 speed, or a T9, or a Caterham 6 speed.
So is this shamless or would Anthony Colin Bruce Chapman approve?
