Yet again I am reminded of Walt's escapade with his Triumph TR. I forget
what engine he managed to get into the front of it, but I haven't forgotten
the result at the other end. Too much torque for the rear axle mountings. I
will spare you all the details - Walt would not have wanted them broadcast -
but they were terminal.

Many years ago I helped a friend shoehorn a small block V-8 into the
engine bay of a Chevy Vega. I didn't want to ride it that one either.
