Probably right
.....many years from now in a galaxy far far north and to the left a bit,..... John H's 15th engine installation is going to be a Hydrogen Fuel cell powering lithium chassis with wheel motors and regenerative braking ....and still getting ready for the new 2020 IVA test.....

Probably right
I was thinking Ford ST 2.5 Turbo, 5 pot. Sounds like a Quattro, looks like a stratos, could be fun!! also I think the exhaust manifold is on the back of block so the installation of system would be easier.
That gearbox looks familiar..............................that's the Sadev ST90 -14, 6 Speed Sequential, got one of those in the workshop ready to be fitted to the Alfa V6 and dropped into the Stratos......
Really good looking engine though, the Alfa would never look that good................................
If not a Busso, it would have to be a 308/328. Authentic transmission, cheaper and more power than a Dino.
That doesn't really fit the 'something plentiful' bill though, does it? You really can pick up Mondials for £7k to £10k though.
There must be a transverse gearbox you can use with the Duratec/Jag V6? Didn't a Noble use one in that configuration, and the new mid engine Ginetta too?
This should go on your Jag V6, but don't take my word for it:

Ever fancied a Skoda engine in your Stratos ?????
Well how about a 3.6ltr V6 297bhp lump out of a Skoda Superb, VW Touareg / Phaeton or Audi Q7
Lots of grunt but not cheap !!! I bet.
On a down to earth cost, VW Golf VR6 lump, also available in America.
