I will be getting a used longblock to replace the one that self-destructed in my car for still mysterious reasons (2002 S2000).

Since I'm in Europe, I need to compile a list of parts I need to get from the US in order to undertake this (parts in Europe are much more expensive). And, obviously, I would like to reuse as many parts from the old engine a possible.

So far I can think of:

Intake Manifold Gasket
Exhaust Manifold Gasket
Spark Plugs
Oil Filter
Flywheel Bolts?

and...well, that's it. Can anybody please recommend anything else I need to get? And maybe mention an opinion on how strongly it is recommended to get it?

Thanks ahead of time....

 

I have a couple of custumers in Europe and I also will be able to help you with the parts list,getting the parts and shipping if needed.

You'll need :
valve cover gasket with spark plug grommets
headgasket
intake gasket
exhasut manifold gasket
rod bearings
main bearings
piston rings (you can't hone the block if you do you will need to resleeve it)
flywheel bolts
oil pump

I have most of the parts new from Honda
email me so we could arrange something kabautos@hotmail.com

 

Thanks! Email sent....

About the following parts though, I imagine that you assumed I'm planning on rebuilding the thing. I guess I'm trying to not have to open the motor up. If I have to, oooh I probably won't be happy.

headgasket
rod bearings
main bearings
piston rings (you can't hone the block if you do you will need to resleeve it)
