Just build it yourself, is alot cheaper and you have more option. Remember we live in the country of motorsport, engine shop over here are just as good/better than the Japanese!
The guy who we use to do the engine work built engine for le mans and 24 hours endurance and he is not that expensive either!

dixon motorsport- have you ever built a f24c?
seen a couple of threads in the states about using k24 crankshaft, h22 rods cut down width wise, h22 or f20 pistons to make a 2.4 genuine honda stroker f24c
i have lots of engine issues at the moment and would be interested in seeing if you have done it or think it is possible?

MB have you still got the soft top in? I took the motors and the whole soft top assembly out and put an OEM hardtop on LOL If it's THAT sunny I'll put the ton cover on and go out 
The whole assembly weighs LOTS! Lost the AC also, that's a big hefty lump!

....hmmmmmmm........
ya know ya wanna! 
ya know ya wanna! Mark, as M1BJR hasn't stopped by to mention it yet, I'll bring it up; what happened to (and I'm paraphrasing here as I couldn't find the thread to quote from, searching for "MB mods" crashed the search engine
) "I'm done with modding now, I've got it all out of my system..."? 
Seriously though, I love following your automotive follies, they make for greeat reading, and some really subtle and tasteful cars

Won't be going for ITB's, Rob. They are very expensive and I don't think you get much more than you can with cams and good breathing mods. If I thought it would net a lot of power then yes, but i've seen too many people go for them and not really get much.
I'd love to see some ITBs from AT Power on an F20Chttp://www.atpower.co.uk/

I'd love to do it, Craig, if I could see a massive bhp gain, but it's just not significant enough on the S2000. I spoke to Toda about it a few weeks ago. I will be going for some Toda cams though 
Paul I think I was just a bit hacked off at the time, and couldn't work out which way to go with the car.
I'm happy as larry in the garage tinkering away though!
Just trying to make my engine / engine bay look like one which is an 06, rather than a 1966 at the moment!
