Been looking at the figures for the ecoboost engines from ford and then wondered how difficult it would be to put one of these in a kit car?

Admittedly i have a MGB GTS I was thinking of dropping it in, but the question is the same really.

is there a Rear wheel drive transfare and gearbox that fits the ecoboost engine?

is it realistic? or is the mass of electrics for the engine just absolute hell?

there must be a way of simplifying the engine loom aka removing immobilizer etc

any input would be great, it is probably just a dream putting it in the MGB but it might be an idea for a future car.

Just as easy as putting a Duratec in. SC do PNP engine control kits or complete ready to go Ecoboost engines.
