I don't know youre situation, but i hope it works out for you. I've always thought having a project gets me through anything, hopefully while you're working on your car it all seems to melt away. Good luck, i'd love to see how it looks when you guys start to make more progress.

I have been searching for the thread about your civette and came across this. As a former Honda tech that loves LS engines I think both cars are wicked cool. My former boss had an S2000 with a Vortec SC. It was pretty quick but lacked any low end torque. This car should be pretty awesome to drive. Maybe similar to the Ls1 Solstice swaps? Not that I've driven an Ls1 Solstice but it's a similar car lol.

I always wanted to put a v6/6spd out of an Accord into a Civic but your Civette is so much cooler lol. I love the videos of it on youtube.

That's interesting. Will it be converted to RWD or can the AWD be maintained?
