I would love a Busso powered Lister Bell, are they as good as their reputation suggests?

Yes, it's a very comprehensive kit that goes together easily with really good customer support from Lister Bell themselves. Mine took me four years to build due to limited time, but they have gone together in under a year if you've got the time. They're not the sort of kit that you hear about sitting around for years unfinished.

Would be a great achievement if you did it, gotta say putting such an old and heavy lump in a modern car seems a bit strange to me but obvs that’s just me. Would love to see one in a 145 Cloverleaf with the carbon manifold and 360/430 TB nom nom nom

I think the Busso is a great engine and I'm sure it would go in a Mito......either front or Mid mounted! Here is the Sprint that I put a mid mount Busso.

I've always salivated at the thought of a busso Lancia Montecarlo. Below is a link to a project done some time ago by an American chap I think. Engine lifted from a Lancia Thesis:

Awesome stuff, only thing better would be if the thing was RWD, but i dont think lancia has any real RWD heritage right?

The Monte Carlo is RWD. Or is a parrot approaching?
