yeah tyson in the clubby there is a bit more room than the roundnose engine bay......... is still possible to do it, it's just more work is all. In the end the decision is yours................ :?

Why don't you just finish your car and engine, then get a fibreglass flip front clubby and roundy section, and paint them the same.
Then you can have whatever car you want whenever you have 10 min to do a front switch.

I like the Clubman because you can pull the motor out by using a floor jack in about 45 minutes.
