Default S2000 motor in EG? (insert hating here)

I'll be short and sweet with this to minimize the "you're a dumbass comments." I just wanna know, has anyone ever heard that you can supposedly use an early 90's prelude tranny on an s2000 motor, to use in a FWD application? I was on another forum, and someone mentioned that. Sounds like bullshit, and I know you'd have the cv issues, motor mount issues, and ecu issues along with every other problem...but man...if you can somehow get an FWD tranny to work...jesus...if the VW guys can throw a syncro all wheel drive system from a damn canadian spec passat wagon onto an 80's GTi, with a 90's VR6, and drive the car everyday without reliability issues...why can't one of us get creative with the overwelmingly large H-parts bin?!?!?!?!

I can't even begin to imagine the headaches that an F22 swap would cause :loco:
