Given Ferrari's known strictness, I don't think the Ferrari engines (458's or Enzo's) would get any further use. The only reason the 4C/458 swap happens was because of historical ties between Ferrari and Alfa (a debatable reason, really), while the Enzo/F40 swap was because of the Simpson V12 GTR project that was Ferrari-approved.

i wonder how they'd feel about putting the 458 Gr.4 engine into the Lancia Stratos? Given it uses the Dino V6, it should be acceptable. And the Stratos could do with a bit more grunt.

I proposed the Alfa DTM 2.5 V6 for that purpose instead. Same engine type and probably less blockades (plus same fuel buff).

Except the Supra, you're trying to put a five-cylinder long engine into cars with three-cylinder long engine bays... and an otherwise weirdly random list of cars.

V10 Supra... I can see that. This swap in the NA2 NSX to mimic the HSV-010's original "Acura Advanced Sports Car Concept" test prototype would be fun - though packaging a longitudinal V10 in a transverse V6 bay might be awkward, and the car was front-mid.
