Technical Barchetta engine

I now have a Barchetta and have compared the engine with the 1.6 twinspark in my Alfa. It is almost identical. I reckon an easy conversion could be done with a 2ltr twin spark, even in standard trim it is 150bhp and sounds fantastic. i also reckon you could keep the barchetta alloy plug cover so it would look factory.

following on from that thought I wonder if the 3 .2 ltr V6 from the alfa 147 GTA would go in cos it isnt a huge engine
even if it fitted,have you costed one up?:eek: a lot of money:p
 
I know those engines go for 1k - 2k however a v6 from a 156 would be a lot more reasonable perhaps £500 - £750 might even be able to find a selespeed one with paddle change. gear box
