   I think it would fit easy, although the bugatti veyron engine apparently will go in sideways and make it rear wheel drive, with no mods, Just need to chop the middle of the car out, piece of piss
   
   Wouldn't keep up with the pimped up 1.1 rudeboys though

    If I was looking for a mental engine I'd probably go for the Hartley 2.8 or 3 litre all alloy V8, probably the lightest, most compact V8 available weighing only 200 lbs and putting out 400-500bhp spec dependent, also revs to 10k.
    
    
    SPECIFICATIONS H1V8:
    
    75° odd fire V8
    2.8 LITER, 170 cu. in. displacement (3.0 liter optional)
    84mm Bore X 63mm Stroke (67 stroke optional)
    4 cams, 32 valves via internal silent chain
    530mm wide x 485mm long x 530mm high
    400HP @ 10,000 rpm with stock street cams (higher spec, 500bhp)
    245 ft-lbs torque @ 7500 rpm
    200 lbs engine weight
    Billet nitrided steel 180° crank
    4340 H-beam con-rods with ARP bolts
    Billet 6061-T6 aluminum crankcase
    Dry sump 0il system with 4 stage pump
    7.25" or 5.5" Twin disc clutch
    DTA S80 full sequential ECU
    Unique cylinder offset and cam drive arrangement yields a compact design- Patent No. 7,168,405

    Can you fit a chip on the ECU or is it better to get a remap on this V10?

    remap may affect the performance of the ported throttle body. Stick with a chip imho

    This thread is getting a bit silly but for talking sake... you'd need very high specced standalone aftermarket ECU to run an F1 engine and extensive mapping. These things are built to such high tolerances that they have to be connected to an engine 'life support' machine which pumps hot oil round it etc etc, keeps all internal temps within certain parameters to stop it seizing and reads its vital signs, only if they are all within spec will it be safe to start.

    IIRC bullit ran it on Vpower, we all told him it wouldnt make it any faster but he said he could feel the difference between that & the 95ron from Tesco. Just wasting his money though i think, you can get double clubcard points at tesco.

    You need the password mate. It should be on another VT of the same colour, you have to measure the difference between the arch at the tyre, devide it by 3 and thats the password. Put that in your keypad.

    Nah mate have a search this questions asked everyday.
    
    But you can replace the 1.0 injectors with 1.6vts injectors to make it a 1.6 though , will need a remap though, and rear tyres replacing.

    on a slightly more serious note. Graeme was offered an aston martin V12 engine for his racecar. Only £12k just for the engine!

    Only thing to do is fit some small steelies on the front to cope with the weight and the lower height, that way it looks like a drag car too!!
    
    Sick tbh...
    
    Big spoiler needed though, counteracts the extra power and the wrong keypad code...
    
    Lexus lights work pretty well so i've been told, also helps with the ecu unlocking problem and gives even more powaaah!

    That's a better figure !!! It'd be worth the hassle then tbh.
    
    Saying that though, I bet 240bhp is plenty fast enough for the road !!
