Before talking about putting a different engine on an existing chassis, remember how much time it took to Rebellion to put the AER engine on the back of the Oreca chassis, it took them months and months working before being able to put the car on track. The engine's anchorage, cooling system, gearbox, and electronics (including TC) take a huge amount of time and money.
That's why I don't see this idea working on. Rebellion announced that they will buy two new Oreca 07 instead upgrading the current R-one (Oreca 05 base chassis), so the current cars could be available if they agree to sell them.
I'll like to the a new P-L team, and better if it is a different engine, but as things are today, with whatever other car on track will be ok.
