Thanks to all who have replied to Sports Rod.  I knew there must be kindred spirits out there.  I agree that for handling the lighter Lotus engine is peferable and has a much better CG location.  It was rumored back when that Lotus was goiing to use the  4 cyl twin cam as the basis for a V8, now wouldnt that make for a nice Jensen Healey. There are now many small 4 cyl engines that put out incredible horsepower that could be used as replacements and maintain a favorable front weight .

Just remember the joy is in the journey the goal is the reward!
