Default Has there ever been a V8 powered S?

Has anyone here ever seen or heard anyone doing a V8 swap in an S?

I'm just curious....

It's a sin to speak of such things. V8's don't belong in the S2000, maybe a Solstice.

Hey aren't you that guy that put the Skyline motor in the Mustang in Fast and Furious 3? Just kidding, I think it'd be interesting to see a v8 S2K

Saw a v8 powered civic for sale on ebay once. Not my cup of tea, but it was interesting.

Anything is possible... that is if you have the money. Why not V12?

Although it reminds me that Honda F-1's been running V8's right?

I have a big picture from a supposed black S2000 with a Corvette LS5 engine in it

But how can I upload it or make you all see it?

I actually do believe this has been done. As Lionheart said, it's with a Corvette engine. One of the guys who said he did it a few years ago has no credibility, so I think he was actually pulling our legs. But I think I saw the same picture of someone's car that Lionheart is talking about. It looked pretty good.

Lionheart, if you become a member of the site, you can post pictures to it. Or, if you can post the picture on some other site, you can point to it using the [ img] and [ /img] syntax (removing the space after the [ ).

alexf20c has one (in fact he probably has two, but he's being modest).
