My main point in suggesting that engine was to show that there are choices out there that don't necesssarily include the small block Chevy V-8. They would be simpler to install, and offer similar, if not better performance. A beaned-up twin-cam I-6 will smoke most stock Chevy V-8's, without all the steering gear clearance problems, etc. The weight savings alone would make it a contender in the performance and handling arena.
