so I'm been tired a lot more than normal, but I'm still excited about working hand in hand with Lantana on making our dreams come true.
Hey, I hope you are going to be OK.
I have been doing the research and am leaning towards the V8. I am taking engine measurements off a friends E500. It appears this could be an easy swap. I also studied photos of the Startech V8 and nothing along the sides or rear of the engine appears to have been moved or altered. It does appear to to have a fan/shroud from a C43. The only other thing that might be needed is exhaust manifolds and engine mounts from the C43, but not sure about this yet.
