Anything can be done with enough money, but an s2000 swap would be a waste due to cost, work involved, and potential of the car. A K swap would be cheaper, easier to do, and could really be built to make power "easier" than the F.

why would you put a k in a lude? just boost the h23 or throw in another h series or a DOHC F series... not including the s2k.

yeah i dont understand why some people want some crazy ass engine swap that will cost an arm and a leg, for a relatively weak Hp/Tq output...

Save yourself the headaches, unexpected costs and potential problems. Get a loan and finance an S2K.

Why not just get a Prelude body kit and put it on an S2K....[/sarcasm]
