On the subject of engine swaps / upgrades, here is an interesting Alpine that is being auctioned on eBay as item # 1806232910 The relevance as applied to the DML is that they describe the engine as being like the DeLorean and it is turbocharged. Isn't this the same kind of engine that someone in the Northwest put in their DeLorean? It isn't too far from where I am, so I'm tempted to go take a look at it and maybe photograph the engine.
