Awesome project! A pipe-dream of mine is to swap a Prius or Camry Hybrid drivetrain into something like an MR2, or regular engine w/ manual tranny into a Prius. The Prius is great for economy, but has much to be desired in the acceleration department.
One question, how do you figure that the Atkinson valve timing makes it 750cc and 6:1 compression? I've never seen any numbers for the effective compression ratio and I just didn't expect it to be so extreme.
