My Girlfriend's little brother (back in 1970 or so) brought home a Honda
600S roadster with a TR4A driveline squished into it. ( I think they
left out the drive shaft and narrowed the solid rear axle.)
It went "real fast" in a straight line and cornered like an early large
block corvette. (Gingerly or on the throttle.)  One of the problems I
remember was seeing past the engine as it sat rather proud of the hood
line.
Fun !!
