My friend blew up his S2000 today on the way to kentucky speedway to see danick patrick(sp) he had pit passes and everything. Here is the funny part. or sad. He blew it up racing a riced out V6 mustang. he pulled the old 3-2 shift.

Well i pulled the head off and the head is destroyed but luckily the block is fixable.


Here is my question. how do i pull the block out of the car. I dont have a motor hoist. Can i unbolt the tranny and just pull the block threw the top or do i drop it all out together through the bottom with the subframe?

 

you might be able to that way, but it would be unsafe in my opinion. you can rent cherry pickers for a very minimal amount from your local autoparts store or sometimes they loan for free. tell your friend he's a moron btw.

 

What I did when I pulled the motor from my rex was support the motor with some blocks/wood/etc.., unbolt the mounts, then jack the car up over the motor. Slide the motor out, and there it is.

You can also leave the tranny in, just be sure and split it from the block before lifting the block, or your friend could be looking for a new clutch set/input shaft...

 

lol trust me. he has caught alot of **** for doing this. i mean if your going to blow it up racing atleast race something that is worth the trouble.

 

Thank you *** hat

here are some pics of the head and pistons. Take note of #4 lol

 

so what's next? any suggestions?

a new motor and change your sig. this time you didn't win.

 

no i won, just broke my car in the process...

block is coming off today, and if i'm lucky it is okay. time for a build

 

well the motor is out of the car. we are now just deciding what to do to it next

 

you could fix it and put it back together.

 

wow, you guys are about as much help as the tards on s2ki... :D

where can i find a stock head, without having to order one from honda? Reason being is I'm going aftermarket on all springs, retainers, valves, etc and can't warrant 1200 on a full head assy when i'm not going to be using half the components

 

my friend also blew his motor the same way. he was freeway trying to race one of our other friends. he was cruising in 5th and was trying to go to 4th but instead he accidently slip it into 2nd and blew it. he ended up picking up a used motor

 

S2ki has some complete heads for sale occasionally. What you do is you come here to HT to get the funny responses and see what the hot S2ks look like then go to S2ki for all the tech and marketplace stuff. I think that is posted up there in the rules sticky somewhere.

well you a wee bit vauge. i read thru this and i dont remember any mention of whether your gonna take this opertunity to build up the motor or just fix it back to stock, so its hard to say what to do next.

either way, gl with fixing it.

 

getting built.

boring out the block, higher compression pistons, rebuilding the head. Block is going to the machine shop tomorrow to get measurements taken.

what do you guys think about Brian Crower products?

 

just have that one combustion chamber re-welded at a machine shop. It only cost like $60 or something, and you are good to go.

 

if you are getting the block built, how about if you do it right? laskey racing sell a core for $600 an dthe full built is $3550. the built block will hold up to 40 psi.

or you can do it with inlinepro too.

 

this is just a mild build, so fully built block is not needed.

there is no help for that head and if so it costs alot more than 60 dollars. lol

mine cost almost 500 and wasnt as bad as his. and it even had to be sent off to 4 shops because noone wanted to attempt to do it because of the extent of it.

 

lol swap in a MKIV supra motor!

or electric motora that the wheels and batteries in the trunks, hella JDM engine tuck lmao

 

2JZ FTW. lol but he doesnt have the money nor time
