Interesting.

But a 240Z Fairlady ought to have a sweet straight-six.

It's the e46 so is a sixer. And a bloody lovely one by all accounts.

340bhp in that should shift well albeit it might need some suspension tuning. Original had 150 ish and 1000kg

Fuck my eyes - it looks like an M10 from an E30 from that angle!

I suppose there's a link with the 240Z having been designed by a Kraut...

But the Scarab small-block would be my choice.

The S54 is a corker IMO

Hadn't heard of a scarab until a quick google of your post. Chevy small block? Not for me although I do like a v8

I was hoping for an S65. Probably add too much weight.
