With regard to the S40 transplant - that platform has known cooling issues (which is why the T5 is a shandy version with around 30 BHP less) so the would have been a real challenge.

Or... how about dropping it into a really nice stock looking 240 Estate??
Ah, I’d want it to look absolutely stock, would want it to draw attention to itself other than the tailpipes and then the noise it made if you really pressed on.

A V8 240 would be a splendid thing. Starting to wonder what the bell housing bolt pattern is and what RWD gearboxes might fit!
