From my not so great search skills, it appears that F22C block (bare, short, and long) and OEM hardtop are no longer available from Honda.

Any tips on good source for a bare block, short block, and OEM hardtop?

The Mugen CF hardtop is also no longer available new, right?

I am definitely late to the S2000 party.

Spoon sports has blocks $17200.00. Euro boutique has OEM hardtops warped in carbon fiber $7200.00
Their are some used HT out there, but expect to pay dearly for a good used one

Nice car! Have you found the secret compartment yet?

Shot of mine in almost the same location but the other side of the Gate!

@Filthy Beast thanks for the pointers!

Spoon has “complete” engine without needing a core, correct?

I will have to reach out to euro boutique to check in availability. Ouch on price though!

@cosmomiller Nice looking car! They look great in all colors.

I have done research to prepare myself for the fuel door but have not learned much about the secret compartment yet. The car is awaiting transport so I probably won’t see it for another week or so.

Open glovebox between seatbacks. The top flips up to reveal an additional compartment. The lid also has the windscreen mounted to it.

Yes Spoon has the complete deal.
As far as Euro you also have to buy the side catchers that hold the HT in place in the back that's another $1100.00

Thanks, @Filthy Beast

Assuming available, it sounds like hardtop from euro boutique is quite expensive!

Is the spoon complete engine simply blueprinted but not particularly focused on increased performance?

Not sure how accurate this information is. I just called Spoon USA and the person on the phone told me complete engine and short block are no longer available.
