Just sitting an thinking today an just wondered what opinions you guys have.
So i have a K20a2 (147kw2000cc FWD honda motor) with a few big end problems i have yet to sort out. I had planned for it to go into a CRX or somthing but...
I was thinking maybe i could get a custom RWD gearbox made up for and pop (as if its this easy) it in my coupe. How much do you recon it would cost for a custom bell housin on a gearbox?

Good luck, it would be a brilliant combination. I have an accord euro 2.4 6spd & Honda make great motors. I have a lot of trouble keeping it off the rev limiter & in a light body it would be rapid.

ust a few starting pionts to consider then. The engine mounts are on the timing cover\and gearbox side right? the other things that would follow would be making sure all of the enine accsesories are accsessable one the engine is turned around. It's got electronic ignition right? that could probly be moved around if it's going to hit anything.

Maybe you could modify the Dellow bell housing and fit a T50 trans behind the Honda engine. Then you'd have 5 reverse speeds and one forward.
