Cool project!
Modern day Shelby Cobra? take the smallest car you can find and stuff a V8 into it!
I can't help but wonder what the weight ratio is now, have you weighed it?

Great swap! This will be the perfect Honda sleeper car. It's not everyday you see a HONDA with a V8 powerplant. You are sure to confuse all the Honda fan boys on the road and perplex all the Corvette, Firebird, GTO, etc. driving guys with one light rev at a stoplight.

No i havent weighed it yet was going to wait until its 100% complete but it should be close to stock after removing a lot of stuff and moving other things around.
