Consider this. The FA20 motor is very low and flat. They took advantage of this and lowered the hood. Then they lowered the seating position, and the dash, and the steering wheel and everything.
So now if you put an upright motor in an 86, it would probably need to be dry sumped and the hood still wouldn't close on it. A new hood would need to be made, making it look rediculas, and the driver couldn't see where he/she is going and it would understeer like a drag car.
If you have a 2 litre car, then race it in a 2 litre class.
