I told you it doesn't fit.
Have you ever posted pictures of your "S7000" ? Has anyone ever seen the car in person aside from you?

I haven't seen you post in a while and I know you live(d) in Houston, so I'd definitely like to come see it. I'm close by now, so it'd be no problem.

Wow, a thread on here without JDM leg humpers??? Where were you guys 6 months ago when I vowed never to come back??

Really cool swap, can't wait to see the finished product.
I just hate to see a butchered car, this one seems to be done with care and mindful of the properties of the s2000. Balance, light and mean.

Very insteresting swap, one that's been bouncing around in my head for a while. I don't have the means, talent, or motivation to put one together, so I'm intrested to see how yours turns out.

I've driven Corvettes before, and I admire the power, but in my opinion they lack the nimble feel of the S2000. If you can retain the responsiveness of the chassis, and put the LS1's power to the ground efficently, it could be the best of both worlds.

My idea was to use an LS2 though, so I could badge the car S6000 on the front fenders.

Good luck, thanks for the pics of the progress so far.
