Rover 214si

1.6 hdi.

We have talked about this Billy, I want the car to work more not work less

Those Rovers came with the 1769cc n/a and turbo PSA engine, so in theory, the 1.9 and possibly even the Hdi would fit (with a bit of electrical know how).
What about PSA petrol engines, are they the same bellhousing pattern as the diesel (I don't personally know, hence asking the question)?
If so, more options again.

Possible, have been looking into the Honda and PSA options, they appear to have welded totally different mounts to the car itself depending on what engine was being fitted though, so anything other than the K will need some fabrication. Although I love the idea of a turbo XUD or HDI lump going into a light car like this.

The PSA petrol probably aren't any better and also harder to fit than a K series unfortunately.
