Default My introduction.

Here's my introduction. I've own my s2000 for over a year now. I bought it with a blown motor.

PS i took off the picture because I am no longer doing the K-series swap.

Looks good. Do you have it going or are you still working on it?

I'm still working on it. I still need to get header, an adapter plate for the intake manifold and do the wiring.

a couple of reason why I decided to go with this swap.
the K24 has more torque and it has ivtec techology. with cams and supported bolt on mods it can make close to the amount of horse power as the F20/F22.
I can pick up a K24A2 at a lcoal junk yard for less then $1000 so if the engine goes its only going to cost me $1000 next time to replace it. while with the F20/F22 i'm looking at $2500 for one every time I need to replace it. I dont like the FRM sleeves on the F20/F22 either while the K24 has iron sleeves and can support any after market pistons with out resleeving.

I dont plan on going FI I just want to do basic bolts on and just have fun with the car. as or right now I have some SKunk 2 stage 2 cams waiting to go in, with some valve springs retainer I should be able to rev to 8 safely.

Good luck with your project. Curious what you mean by blown engine. You can do a great F24 motor by hybridizing the H22 from a Prelude and the Crank from the K motor. Check the Internet for the Feb. 2009 issue of Turbo an High Tech performance magazine. Article is " Building a budget 2.4 liter stroker". Best of both worlds.......
