I have seen some bike engined cars - mainly 7 style kit cars, I was wondering if there is a bike engine suitable to make a light weight bike engined Honda Civic. Strip it out,lower it, fit 1000cc bike engine...with the sequential gears and light weight front end would it make a good track car or hill climber ? Can you uggest any potential pit falls in the idea? Would a lighter car like a Clio be more suitable ?

I want a hill climb daily hatch.....clio would fit the bill - they drive about in 1.1 guise and 50hp ! less weight and 150ho would be rude.
