Default New project: S2000 engine to K20 transmission

We have been working on this for a couple months and have got it into the car this week. We still have some checking to do to make sure it clears the factory hood on a standard car.

That's hot.

Did you have to shave either the block or the bell housing of the tranny to get that adapter to fit?

because he builds some of the sickest , most reliable motors out there. And yes I know from experience.

He always comes up with some crazy stuff that seems to work...

that is sick as hell. though i must admit, a RWD k20 might be a little cooler.

nonetheless.

mad props.

It's **** like this that makes me stay in the scene...Innovating new parts and things that haven't been done before are what make it all worthwhile....I would like to do the CRV all wheel drive conversion to my Integra one day, a possibility just because someone like this went and pulled the **** off and proved it possible and doable... Thumbs up all the way.....

i dunno, that just seems crazy, more for show than go, believe me i know it will go, but its just like "look what i can do" i don't want to sound like a dick but i just don't know why you wouldn't stick with a k-series and have to deal with a lot less custom fabrication.......

"out of the box" the F20C is a more potent unit than the K20A

There are a couple of benefits for doing this swap. One of the first things we are going to do is dyno a bone stock engine with a Hondata system to see what they make stock in a fwd application. I imagine it will be in the 210-220whp(dynojet numbers). That is about the same as the K20a type-r engine. If you look at the costs associated with getting a k20 type-r engine you will pay on average $5000-$6000 just for the swap. The pricing for this conversion I believe will be around the same price but the F20c engine has stronger internal parts with a hair more potential. This swap is not for people who want the cheapest k swap possible.

We have been running s2000's from 450-500 rear whp on pump gas turbo charged on the stock engines with great success and reliability. The F20c pistons are forged not cast like the k-series. With the F20c engine you have a built engine without having to build it.

Another reason we chose to do this is because the finding core F20c heads and blocks for building is easier and cheaper than the k-series. I have about 10 core F20 blocks and heads here compared to 1 k20a2.

I have also been working one development of the F20 for about 1.5-2 years longer than the k-series so ultimately I believe I will be able to extract more power than a k-series.
