5.3 liter V8 S2000 stopping in w/pics
Hello all,
Stopping by to check out the site. Here is some info on my car:
2000 Honda S2000
5.3 liter all aluminum block and heads from 2007 Chevrolet SUV( LS1 intake, exhaust, coils, oil pan and intake tube)
T56 6 speed manual transmission
All factory Honda instrumentation.
Took it to the scale house and weights are as follows:
Car plus full fuel tank and 70# weight in the rear = 3040 lbs
Car plus full fuel tank and 70# weight in the rear (front axle) = 1520 lbs
Car plus full fuel tank and 70# weight in the rear (rear axle) = 1520 lbs
Hope to gain much knowledge from the site.

Car is in a steel building so the exhaust note isn't very clear.

Bash away! It ain't for everyone but it works for me!

Very nice, it's in there without looking like a hack job.
Most people seeing it in person would believe it came from the factory as such.

Saw this on Craigslist. Did you do the swap or just buy it after someone else did the swap?

congrats on the car. I saw this on ebay and this site for a while. Any videos you post would be great. I was always a little suspect on using an SUV motor, but I'm sure it must still be fun. Do any towing with it?

I plan on getting a few videos on youtube in the near future. It seems there is a lot of doubt on the net about this swap being completed and road worthy.
It's a whole lot of fun to me!
No towing in the near future expected.
