Building: Built: Sylva Stylus De-Dion DURATEC

Having measured the transmission tunnel the S2000 won't fit without widening by a couple of inches; not something I really want to do as the car is fully trimmed and wired, doesn't rule it out but certainly detracts from the appeal.

Volvo could be interesting if I can re-use type 9 box, my current ECU would easily run the engine and quite probably the S2000. I'm ruling the V8 out, I had a 2.8 V6 in a kit previously; there is such a thing as too much torque
