Given enough money, time and talent, you can fit a Cummins Turbodiesel into an Austin Healey Sprite. I can't begin to imagine the cost and time necessary for the conversion you are contemplating, but my approach would be to look at a diesel-equipped w116 as a potential donor, given their kinship to the r107.
Good luck.
