There seem to be a lot of people who think getting 200bhp out of a DeLorean PRV is easy, I would suggest that for a reliable and most probably more cost effective option you should drop in a modern, better engine to start with.
The PRV is old and the DeLorean is fitted with possibly the worst version, odd fire, early Bosch KJet, old idle speed technology, rubbish exhaust etc...
It's easy to say just add a new SS exhaust, Volvo block but all those costs add up quick and you're still left with an old engine.
If you look at what other people have already done you may find they have adaptor plates and engine mounting solutions which can be reproduced, one offs can be cnc machined if you have accurate cad files from a previous install.
Just IMHO of course.
