few questions for you.

Do you know what the f20c is out of and how the powertrain lays out?
If you have a good idea how to do this swap for the average joe mechanic id love to hear

the f20c rotates reverse of the honda FWD engines...

you could do a custom RWD setup, but that would be incredibly hard and probably somewhat fruitless considering you could just buy an s2k for alot less and have better balance and less to no headaches

there's a bell housing that you can get for the k-series trans







I know very little about this setup.

I'm assuming that you'd use 2/3 of the hasport mounts and 1 custom engine mount.

EDIT:

found it: http://www.prototyperacing.com/f20kit.htm
