I’m a fan of naturally aspirated.
Stock it’s an 1800cc and looks like you can go to 2000 fairly easily.
You pretty much make same power either way but I like old school, NA.
The guys on Engine Masters did a segment on that.
Big compression Vs blower, Vs turbo and at the end of it they were shocked to se them basically the same.I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

A stock S600 is a weird thing to start with. It’s tiny. The engine is 600cc and makes 57 HP at 8500 rpm. And it’s chain drive.
Is it me or did the engine in the video have all steel mounts with no dampening?

I live in the sticks w/no internet so everything loads slow so, only guessing on above reply’s as to transplant suggestions.
As archaic as it is, it shall be, and remain MG.

CDave's link is about transplanting a modern liter bike engine into a Honda S600. There are so few S600's left that I would have preferred a stock car. The S600 was incredibly unique. But maybe the drivetrain was gone, in which case a bike engine would be appropriate.
For grins I looked up what the stock MGB intake would have looked like. Instigators fabrication now looks like a 60's Lotus set up.

Couple hrs away from climbing on the Ferry to South Bass Island for the vintage British car races on the island.
Plan to annoy all the fast guys in the pits, by asking lots of dumb ass questions!

I have some pretty good video of the parades and races but need to upload to YouTube when I get time.
The white car is a very rare MGC w/a in-line 6.
There we’re two there.

The mighty bug that pestered the **** out of that notch back Stang.
Amazing what being rear engined and 1000 lbs lighter will do.
The bathtub Porsche belongs to the even photographer whom I spent an hr asking dumb ass questions of!
Very nice guy and spent a lot of time racing and winning in a 911.
The green one is his daily driver!
