A 6cyl would have to mean major body chops as the old 4cyl engines were tiny, engine bays are pretty short. I imagine a V6 would challenge for width too. You could look at a TX3 engine, 1.6 dohc 16v, or a zetec/duratec from Mondeo/Focus. Even a Kent crossflow - they use those in Formula Fords after all.
Have a look here - one fitted with early Cortina stuff. |
