That's cool. Interesting. One day this shell needs a new engine maybe, and a D17 with lean burn would pass CA emissions regulations. I would be curious about combining the taller gearing with the modestly greater torque the D17 seems to have over the D15 or D16.
[EDIT: Here is a guy who apparently tried it, but not certain it succeeded... check out the pics:
