Yes, it would be possible. Watch out for the bottom of the control arms though. My feeling is they'll be much too close to the pavement to be able to enjoy driving.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
