Welcome to the site 
Which V6 did you have in mind?
You should be able to do it but some will present greater challenges than others, some are not very good!
Cheers

There is a guy with a 24V Cossie in a Viento which is the widest chassis going.
The pics may give you some ideas. Cant think of who it is though. Its a Red one, so it must go pretty fast
Might be worth a post on the Luego Group on here.
haynes is 2" wider than a locost, Mc Sorley is up to 4" (+4) wider, and the Luego Viento is 6" wider. (just for reference)
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.
Best Regards
