Cosworth turbo & Velocity

Hi, does anybody know if the Sierra Cosworth turbo engine will fit into a Velocity?

The cosworth engine is basically a pinto with a new head and therefore would fit fine. The question however is whether you could fit the turbo/injection gear to it - I think it may just be possible but would be a hell of a sqeeze (see Hicost's car!).
However a Cossie lump fitted with twin 45's would still be a pretty good motor!

I'd say if you're going to spend the money building a Cossie powered car do it in a Viento chassis!

A Viento makes sense but I like small cars + I think the Velocity has better proportions aesthetically + I have a Velocity on order.
