Please.  The engine position in the DeLorean is the unfortunate
stuck-in-the-tail sort of thing.  The mass distribution already sucks for
handling (Lotus had to pull out all the stops just to get it up to
"acceptable").  I can't imagine what a pig it would be with a big lump of
Ford cast iron out the back.
