Help us out: Engine Designer Demo - Scenarios

Scenario:
Cheap, Reliable, economical engine… Haven’t the Japanese been doing that for years?

The year is 2020, oil prices at an all-time high and becoming increasingly more difficult to obtain. Drastic measures are called upon: Located in the USA as a large Auto manufacturer the US Armed services have sent your company a top secret objective... Create a fuel economic engine with enough power to drive the front-lines against Saudi Arabia.
After burning through most of the global oil supply, Saudi Arabia remains one of the few countries with a substantial reserve. In recent years Saudi Arabia signed a contract with china, this guarantees China a constant supply of fuel and Saudi Arabia with protection. WE WANT THAT OIL MEN!!

(*Not sure about the Tech Specs)

--------------------------------------------------
I was wanting to think of a way to allow people access to all sorts of modern parts but give them an objective which would be "important".
Hope you like it... ps I don't even know if the game goes to 2020 lol

Scenario:

It's the mid 1970's, the oil crisis is in full effect, brands are trying their best to make economical cars, unfortunately the American brands are falling a bit behind in this, mostly relying on huge engines and even huger cars.
An American brand has contacted you, wanting help changing up their Sports Sedan, the car has a 2.3 I4 with a carburetor, and they want you to build on that engine, make their 2.3 I4 as economical and still sporty as you can, running on the cheapest fuel you can manage.

Tech Limits:
You have to use the 2.3 I4 base.
It for some reason for a 2.3 I4, only comes with 75 HP, you have to improve on that, and still have it reliable, cheap and economic.
You are allowed to make changes to the way the fuel is delivered, as long as it is a cheap low RON fuel.
It needs to be competitive even on the European market.
It needs to be inexpensive to make.


(Edited for I4 engine.)

Remember that we are limited to I4s only.

Yeah only naturally aspirated inline 4

Scenario:
In 1978 Crazy bastard engineer at Conan Coachwork contact you, They're making a Van size of a Midget with composite body.

seems i missed the part about the I4, doh!

well, the same brand did make that same car, with a 75hp I4, which is even worse than the 2.8 V6
who wants a 4cyl Mustang? XD

the year is 1996 and the japanese need a fast and economic little car so they tell the engineers at your little company to make an engine that is fast reliable and economic this little engine is going to need to be fast and fun little car but economic for city driving.
