Ford Ka
[quote="Shonky"]I decided to try and fit a V6 into a Ka, the Ford lump was way too big but this Vauxhall 2.5 v6 is quite compact, it's being done on a budget of peanuts and selling what crap I have lieing around.
I already had the Ka with coilovers, 4-pots, rear discs, cage etc. just needed a motor
I've sent the engine mount mock ups off to be made out of plate, I'm hoping to have it all mounted and running in the next few weeks
Engine shots...

I can think of much better engines to put in it, but fair play for having a go.
