Re: 6 cylinder in a 100 chassis

Always wanted to find the time to build a Healey 4000 clone from an
unrestored car. "Course I will never find that kind of time.

There have been long running rumors that the the Datsun "Z" engine was
created as a copy of the Healey six. Supposedly it's almost a perfect match
for motor mount position, linkages, etc. Datsun is said to have bought 3 of
the last production BJ8s...in an effort to copy what mattered.
