Re Sunbeam ... a friend of mine had a Tiger ..... he had to release the motor mounts and raise the engine off them to change the spark plugs .... not exactly what I would call an easy to live with DIY car ........

However ... a few years ago there was a 122 went through E-Bay that had been built to run the Cannonball ..... had a Chevy 350 under the hood and a Ford 9" rear ... it CAN be done ... all it takes is determination and lots and lots of $$$$$$$$. .....

Only swap that I figure wouldn't work is an Allison V-12 in an Austin Mini ;-) ... considering the engine is larger than the whole Mini (BIG GRIN).
