As the title states I recently acquired my 2nd S2000 in roller form. it's a 2007 chassis and other than missing the soft top mech, engine, and trans is otherwise a pretty clean car. I have a couple 6.0 LS motors and got my hands on a ford 8.8 rear diff. I picked up a CD009 trans with the car.
In the interest of time as I have other builds going on I kind of want to take the path of least resistance in getting to a running and driving car so while I have the skills and equipment to scratch build everything I do not see a point in reinventing the wheel. While researching it seems the majority of LS swaps out there are doing T56 for trans instead of the CD009. My goals are to try to keep the hood stock in shape and use the stock shifter hole. Beyond that all bets are off.
I'm turning to the wisdom of the community that has completed the swap for guidance. Who makes the best motor mounts? I'm looking to Grannas Racing for the 8.8 swap stuff but open to suggestions.
Runninlo, is that an Iron Maiden reference?
Sadly no. I was/am an old mini-trucker and one of my earlier builds was 1st gen Toyota 4Runner with RUN1NL0 on the plate. It's also my XBox gamertag. the roller
Throw up a pic of the roller, maybe that will get some more attention.
Think I have convinced myself to use the CD009 for something else and use a T56 for this one.
