Worth a read on a very impressive S2000 Westie install.

If its £6k for a brand new engine including a dry sump(?), thats not quite so bad when you compare it against the costs of getting other 2L engines up to similar power with dry sumping, although its certainly not the chepest option. It also depends what else the price includes because I can imagine it would cost quite a bit to set up a decent ecu to run it all properly with the Vtec kicking in properly etc, if it doesnt come/work with the stock ECU

£6K would buy a very healthy small block Ford or Chevy, with gearbox, and a lot more than 300HP.

Cheers,
Syd.

And you might even have enough change for the RSJ's needed to reinforce the locost frame with!

Yep, and the railway tracks you'll need to get it round the corners you wish to navigate
