Pushrod Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Like I said ages Honda makes some really good engines like the K20A it's good enough for Ariel to use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pushrod Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 Yea, itd be quick and all, but its still a Honda engine in an Escort I agree and would never put a honda or any other make of engine really in my car but it's still a good engine and would be wicked in a caterham or westfield or something similar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atropine Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 for 135hp theres a LOT of other options.. unless this is dirt cheap.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Demonmk2 Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 Does dirt cheap count as free? cause im getting the engine 4 free if i want it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Demonmk2 Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 im sure sincec i got the engine 4 free it would be a good experiment wouldnt it? all i need now is gearbox engine mounts exhaust gearbox adaptors and diff right? oh and cert..."cough" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atropine Posted May 14, 2005 Share Posted May 14, 2005 conversions arent usually as simple as engine mounts.. and do you know of a gearbox to mate it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zep Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 S2000 box would be your best, and probably most expensive bet. I say sell the engine you get given and buy something, anything better and easyer. Should be able to get enough for a 4AGE or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Demonmk2 Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 but can u tell me is it possible to get adaptors for the engine to convert to a rwd gear box? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atropine Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 gearbox adapters.. im pretty sure its not that simple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zep Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 I have no idea about this. [urban legend?] All I have heard is that honda engines, such as those, spin the oppoiste way or something, giving this 5 reverse gears and 1 fowards gear. I have no idea how much bullshit that is or what not, but it sounds funny and I wouldn't be surprised if it was true. [/urban legend?] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
