Jimbo bought a 1969 Renault R10 and asked for engine swap suggestions.

He bought it off Mr. Goodpliers and said he could rebuild the engine, but that isn't what we do here.

The car only weighs around 1,550 pounds, so a small engine would go a long way, but I want to see if an engine powerful enough to actually cruise at highway speeds, not redline, would be more effective.
