If your still interested im doing the pro motive engine conversion. i ahve not yet looked at insurance how ever a friend of mine has a mk 1 fiesta and he asked about putting a 1000cc bike engine in and they said well why would you want to make your engine smaller , as it was standard 1.1. so they gave me a quote and the price actualy went down even because the engine size had been reduced.
