    YAAAAAAAAAAA!
    Been traveling like a dog for work and have not made any progress with assembly. The bottom end parts are all sitting in my garage and I have to do a little mild porting on the head before having the water jackets bridged.

    I am shooting for a completion date sometime early next year provided I can get the head welded and returned to me quickly.

    I took a few days off next week and around Christmas specifically to work on my 2002 engine rebuild.

    Have a great turkey day!

    I imagine a Honda S2000 engine would be a blast in a 2002.

    9k RPM, 240hp, reliable, readily available parts and aftermarket support on the engine, sounds like a winner to me. I'm sure the purists will disagree, but I just think it's a fantastic engine.

    Bah, stick with the S14. This kid would have TLC footing the bill anyway, so why not go all out?

    Well if I didn't have to pay for it I would just go with a wild fully rebuilt S14 with the works.

    I can't find a 2002 on your page with a s14 ?
