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 reckon the Smart Coupe with a bike engine instead of the standard 3-pot might be quite amusing.

I'm sure some posts have gone missing from this thread, or am I going mad ?
