Question About K20a

I know htown did a swap, and all that, and the cost for it, but i was wondering if he could of made it RWD, instead of FWD like the type-s is.
Just a idea I had running threw my head while watching a BMW do a uturn [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] and over spin and almost hit the camera RWD
but yea , any ideas, just wondering, i wondered if you didnt swap the FWD k20a but maybe the s2000 engine...... i duuno just wondering if you swaped the engines if you could make a RWD civic

By the time you got an F20 Shoehorned under the hood (if it would even fit), got a custom made drive shaft and rear end made, you might as well just have bought an S2k, because it isn't going to be worth it.

no, you could not do it cheaply. it would cost as much if not more then your car.. for the labor alone.
