Folks,

I can't help but wonder if the suspension and braking systems would be
anywhere near strong enough to handle either a small block Chevy or a
flat Suburu four. Maybe Randy has some ideas - he put a 4.7L Cadillac
engine in an old Fiat - something tells me the only Fiat part is the
body shell aft of the windshield.
