This looks like a nice, refined and sensible base for a project. I'm sure you'll do the right thing and return the engine back to it's rightful place in the front of the car. Can't imagine what anyone was thinking about doing this to such a lovely XR3i in the first place. Neanderthals.

I was kidding! It's a fucking ace project mate, wish i had the skills/time/funds to take on something like this!!!! Better using a MK4 for something like this than to have sitting rotting away under a tarpaulin in someones drive.

First thing I would do if I had that is move the fuel tank over the front wheels. One reason is for weight and the other is it's a fuckin stupid idea having it next to the engine lol
