    Bit surprised to see @chris_r you didn't suggest a Z20LET! Am I misinterpreting the criteria or something?

    Call me curious but I'd like to see a modern engine in a Gem just to see what it looks like when an engine usually mounted transverse style is dropped into a older car longitudinal style, assuming that's the what people generally do. Would be like seeing life from some sort of parallel universe, LOL!
    Didn't mention the Z20LET, as turbocharged engines in pretty much all forms of racing including IPRA have their capacity multiplied by a factor of 1.7, meaning that a 2.0 turbo engine is the equivalent of a 3.4 litre naturally aspirated engine. That would put the OP in a different category again as opposed to the 2000cc and under.
