There is a company in england that specialises in these swap although I forget their name. Last year at the mini 45 show at Beaulieu Motor Museum I saw two V-tec'd cars going at it on the dyno. The most popular motor I belive is the 1.6 CRX motor from the car you guys call the Del-sol 160 hp stock and smaller than the B20 motor. They afore mentioned co sells kits although they fit a lot easier under a clubamn front end than a roundnose. Ther's also the KAD 8 port head for your a-series block that's cheaper and totally rips! KAD usually build them with Yamaha R-1 pistons and rods!
