like i said above, i can see where gearheads love this swap, and i can really respect all the work that was done, but for me it just doesn't feel right or make sense...buy a muscle car if you want low end torque, etc...buy jap cars for the refinement, feel, sound, etc that is all unique to one...

eh, to each his own...probably a blast to drive anyway!

So american cars have no feel or sound? Sorry there is nothing better than the sound of a V8 (well maybe a V10 or 12) A high reving 4 cyl isnt exactly the greatest sound.

I want to hear the beast in that little car! Awesome. Kudos to the owner for having the balls to get that done. It's a lot cheaper than having a V and an S2000 in the same garage.

@fsttyms1: I meant in general, Honda makes high-revving engines, while domestics don't have that many high revvers since all their torque is in the low-mid range.


Holy shit, that S2k is fast.

@V6k...now you can say ZOMG VTEC!!!!

"The heart of the engine is a signature AllenBuilt motor, personally assembled by Jeremy Allen himself. Sleeved in-house with AEBS close decked sleeves, the block is race ready. With custom designed pistons from CP Pistons, and inlinePRO connecting rods, the block was able to handle over 700 rear wheel horsepower with ease. Mated to the race engine, is a Portflow head courtesy of Tom from Portflow Design. With air flowing freely through the head, we installed inlinePRO springs and inlinePRO titanium retainers allowing the engine to rev out to 10,500rpm."
