It was either built by, or owned by a guy who worked at Frogford Motorsport. It had a nutty flamer kit on it too IIRC.

Looks like a proper giggle to be fair, 220bhp in that will raise a few eyebrows!!

Yeah defo.
Thats kinda what put me off doing mine MR... the engine is pretty heavy (5cyl) and though its a bit front heavy now, I think it would end up way too rear heavy. Saying that, the engine needs to come out no matter what I do so I might just chop a hole in the floor and go for it
