If BMW can drop a naturally aspirated 8000RPM 340HP straight six in the new M3 (drool), then surely Honda can turn your photoshop V8 into reality.

At a local car hangout, a group of Miata guys came over to check out my S2K. One of the first things they said was "Wow, look at all the room in there. It'll be real easy to drop in a Ford small block V8!" ... like that would be a good thing?

3 liters, 9000RPM, 360HP, chassis and drivetrain design adjustment to maintain balance. It won't happen because Honda already has a supercar in the NSX. Fun to dream though.

Well, dropping a Ford V8 in there would be better than a Chevy one.
