I think its pretty sick, Id do it if I couldnt afford an S2k(I bought a smashed one, if that tells you anything).
Craftsmanship looks great, coming from a guy who stuffed an H22 in the trunk of a del sol.

wow. Crammed city! lol Craftsmanship does appear to be done well in that car.

I wonder if there are any negative effects from possible weight differences between the F20C and the Miata's engine?

That would be interesting to see in action on a track.

The Miatas blocks are cast iron arent they? Excuse my retardedness if this is obvious, I know as much about Miatas as I do about carburators...

Miata's curb weight is about 2,500 if i remember correctly, and i think the S2000 is pushing 2,900 so yeah, im curious what that 400lb's shed off of it would do as far as #'s go...i doubt it handles as good, given the placement of the engine and such. But i bet its a load better than the slouch thats in the stock mx5...

I thought the F20C was a lot taller than a miata engine? How tall is the F20C?

You guys know that the miata's block is iron, and can hold 400hp stock enternals right ? I almost bought a 95 with the 1.8 engine to turbo.
