Yes, but you start out with a boat anchor for a motor, not something sweet like the S2k motor. 
I know because I too have one sitting around while I try to figure out what to put in there. I have a spare S2000 motor that I keep threatening to put in there and a friend keeps shooting for an ECOTEC with the dealer reflash for 290 hp and 300 lbs torque.

There are plenty of people here who don't like what I've done with my car, or who feel that I "abuse it," but their opinions have zero effect on how much I love and enjoy my lil Honda.
No matter what you do, you are going to find people who don't like it. As long as you don't over react to it, it says more about them than you, so it's just best to ignore it, or respond respectfully and factually.
I'd rather put a V-8 in my Miata than in the S2000, but my brother in law had one of the nicest V-8 conversions I've seen. They managed to squeeze a Chevy V-8 into an MG Midget, and the tiny car was just terrifyingly awsome.
LOL, and try not to yell (all uppercase), even if you're upset. It hurts my ears.

Dont listen to the haters, hell Ive had my share of Mustangs and now a vette, Ive never even had an S2K and Im still more excited about this project than anything else going on around here
This is the problem though with posting a project too early, it always takes longer than you think and people dont stop bugging you. I got the same problem on another forum with my Blacktop 4AGE going into my 74 Triumph Spitfire. Damn I wish I didnt make a thread about it until I was finished 
Anyhow, godspeed and shine on you crazy diamond!
