Awesome. I love how you stole the show at Import Alliance 2 years in a row with the civette. I bet the s2k will be just as much fun.

Sounds like a blast!

A buddy almost had a simular project going a few years back, but the guy wanted too much for the S2000 with a blown motor & fire damage.

haha i never check this thread.....

here is the update......

i was tired of the car sitting in my driveway with no drivetrain in it..... city of memphis left a notice on my door to make it move..... so i took it back to the owners house....he got the motor a couple of days ago.....so maybe we can get started soon....

to the guy with the other s2000.....was this your setup for a "firewall notched setup"?

yeah, it is. you will have to loose the front beam or move it if you dont. another major problem you will have is the rack & headers. those are the biggest hurdles. oh btw, the s2000 with the ls7 in it didnt cut the firewall and the motor is literally 6 inches away from it. it looks terrible and i bet performs very badly

Man, it should only take a couple days then. Watch what manifolds you use the truck ones are too wide. They flare out at the flange end.

Maybe the GTO manifolds would be an option???
