My mid-engined track car the Aeon Blaze.

Got a Integra DC2 so want to keep my "toy" car as Honda as possible.

Dan liked your original answer by the way, noob's deserve some sort of grief.

Only found one thread on Prime, and it wasn't answered...

Sounds like an interesting project, but i imagine you'd be waiting a while for an engine unless you're prepared to get a lovely crate NSX-R engine from Detlef!

It may be a difficult fit. The NSX V6 is a 90deg V, with huge heads, housing the VTEC system.

I have noticed on the Aeon site that the Ford V6 is an option. This is a 60deg V, and without VTEC would be a more compact unit.

I would maybe think of looking at a supercharged 2.0 Honda unit like Ariel use? You get the same amount of power.

Engine weight = 425 lbs
Transmission weight = 110 lbs
Engine width = 3 1/2 feet
Engine length = 2 1/2 feet
Engine height = 3 feet

Thanks for the engine dimensions Dan its a great help, interesting point on the head size i will have a measure up but doesn't sounds too good.

Looks like i will just have to sell the Teg buy an NSX and be done with it.

As already said, you da man
