I think these links will help you figure something out. Sounds like when the solenoid is unhooked it's possible but requires serious effort and risks transmission damage to try to get it into reverse. Test it by hooking a battery to it maybe? There's also the "skip shift" or second gear lockout you may or may not have and should likely check out depending on what you've got.
+1 that crank holding apparatus is simple, obvious, and really sweet.

Those links seem to indicate the reverse lockout is separate from the skip-shift. I just mentioned that as he might want to make sure he doesn't have a problem with that in the future. It makes sense; one prevents damage from too high of RPM going into second and the other prevents from going into reverse unless you are going very slow.
Did I get that wrong?

Gotcha. Going into a vehicle that can use the electronic speedo? You'll need an electronic signal for the PCM but if you have an older vehicle with a cable driven speedometer you may have a problem. I bought a Dakota Digital piece from Novak that gives both an electronic signal and a passthrough for a cable drive that makes both work. I've got a SM465 transmission with electronic nothing but still wanted speedo signal to the PCM. Haven't hooked it up yet but it's in the pile of "next month" parts.

Rear end is going to remain stock for now. Later on, if I blow it, I will probably either go with another stock rear end that is cryotreated (ie, puddymod, known to handle a good bit of power thrown at it) or an 8.8 conversion.

That's surprising. Is the S2000 rear end fairly strong for what it is? I figured any decent LS and a stick would explode such a thing...backing out of the driveway. Auto might seem a little more gentle but still there's more than double the torque there and at maybe 3000 less RPM? I know nothing about a Honda rear axle.

The LS swap is actually going to be replacing an SR20DET swap I did that, at 20psi of boost, is putting out about 350hp/tq, and my rear end has held up beautifully thus far. *knocks on wood*

So, bumping this back up now that I've gotten the motor in the car, transmission/driveshaft and all. Threw the car into 4th and attempted to get that last 40 degrees....no luck. Used a breaker bar and even a pipe over the breaker bar to extend it, it just would not budge past the 100 degrees that I've gotten.. At this point I am worried about causing damage if I keep trying to torque it further.
