Icon3 F20C del sol

is there any possible way to put the F20C onto any honda or acura transmission? i think it would be an awesome and extremely different setup having a F20C motor and making it front wheel drive. any help from anyone?

There were one or 2 companies out there that were supposed to come out with an adapter plate for the K-series transmissions. I never heard anything about anything ever coming out though. So either the idea failed, it's still in R&D, or they figured it was too expensive.

To be "different" may not be worth it in this case. You clearly have a lot of money, you may as well get a K20 swap.

Make it RWD, someone did a k20 in the trunk of a del sol. You should try it with this.
