    800ft lbs of torque in the same space needed to stuff a SBC.


    This is going to become a thing.

    Of course.  But if I can afford the motor I can afford the differential to handle it.

    "That leaves finding room for a battery as the main challenge for would-be EV crate motor converts."  Not just a 'battery' but several batteries and other electrical goodies.

    Same space as a fuel tank & you could put it anywhere to optimize performance.


    Imagine dropping 800ft lbs of torque into a Miata for SCCA racing...

    Might be easy on the drive train. Slow wind up, no shock I would think.

    interesting for sure . I am sure it will be done many times over by the people  with large bank accounts and a high end shop doing the work 
     oh I did my share of engine swaps ( and sure more to come ) and most were as FCD  no where near nice conditions or tools .
     I am amazed at what the aftermarket has to offer but then again most is well beyond my meager budget for hot rodding

    I think I read in the link that they are $11,500. Batteries extra.

    Mike Brewer, the guy from Wheeler Dealers tv show, had a spin off show, where he'd go around & hang out with different kinds of car people.  
    One episode featured these guys who put electric motors from wrecked Teslas into classic cars.
    They told him they weren't going green;  they were going fast!
