Russell Savory also builds/modifies/sorts out the engines for the LCC Rocket.  I've seen his V8 and it's quite tiny and light weight - it's loosely based on two Yamaha 1000cc blocks.

I had the passing thought that it might fit into the Atom if a suitable transmission could be found.

The V8 has also been used in the cars from:
