Me too, sounds a good plan. What's the size of this engine? I like the thought of the S2000 2 litre screamer, but I believe that's a very tall engine, although it may go in slantways...
They are 2.5l. Easy 300bhp (you can get a factory tune as high as 385) 430 with a bit of work and local guy, a bus driver no less has a dyno printout for nearly 550. He also has a whacking great bill for all the work :-/
I admit this is a bit off topic, but I think you can use the forged crank out of a volvo diesel engine version of this lump and and get 2.7 litres and they will bore out another 100cc to 2.8 litres on top, sorry but they are an interesting engine :oops: :oops:
best regards
