Thats an easy one - BMW E30 M3 lump.

You didn't say it had to be the cheapest though!

Plenty of 150bhp candidates though - XE Redtop, Alfa twin spark (although the 170bhp ones were a primitive VVT) ans many others will make 170-180bhp with minimal tweaking.

The Mi16 is about 170bhp standard, and there is a RWD box that will fit - LDV Pilot. Ratios might be dire though as it was on the 1900 N/A (DW9?) diesel!





Long live RWD...

What's this Vanos? Are you looking for an engine without any modern trickery?

Would an early enough tweaked K-series from an MK1 Elise/Exige be pre-VVT? 190bhp for an Exige, isn't it?
