My b'law has a 2000 S2000, it would be sick to have a 400hp engine in that chassis.

the civette is great because it was original. i think this S2000 project is bad ***, but i want to see something else that hasnt been done. what about a cavalier with a LS2 swap, to make fun of those who say that the GTO is a cavalier with a v8. besides, a cavalier would be cheap to acquire.

Someone is already doing a beretta... Kinda like a cavalier. I think its gonna be sorta hard to find an "original" swap anymore. Seeing as how the LS1 swap is becoming popular with so many people.

I like the S2000 idea....but that civic swap was crazy cool. I still want to follow along if you are going to detail the swap as good as you did with the other car!

Sounds like a darn cool swap! A little rich kid at my highschool has one. Course he has no idea how to drive it, but thats beside the point. As much as it pains me to say, its a nice looking car.

If you want to be original, you could swap an LSx into a....3rd gen f-body? Ive heard thats never been done before

It would be cool to see one in a pontiac Grand prix or something, though that still similar to the cavalier platform.

I like S6000.

The Civette has to be the craziest lsx build ever, that thing was almost as much fabrication as building your car from the ground up.
