Canting the engine like that actually helps promote better engine oil drain back to the oil pan. Rally and drag racing has been doing it for a very long time. It helps the oil run down the sides of the block inside and keeps oil out of the crankshafts way. Keeps it from aerating the oil in the crankcase and reduces rotational drag while the engine is running.

before you receive the adapter kit , i was thinking the price is very expensive, but after you unbox everything and i do think it does worth the price

I couldn't imagine how heavy that flywheel would be if it were cast or billet steel. Being aluminum though and that thick makes sense. You aren't having to space out the throughout/release bearing.

Just out of curiosity, is a s2000 trans a way more expensive option than the rx8 plus adapter plate? Such a rad swap! Love the channel!

Fitment to a K24 would should be the same? Sensors on back clear? Did you get the waterline relocate kit?

Should have put an FD or 20b in that !

Can you please tell me what is CUR harness? Set up you used for the casey's swap in the rx8

What are people doing about wiring? Fuel pump still works with the K-Series?

what slave cylinder you ended up using? mind to share the part number?

Boss man,,, you can user clutch Honda

What's the PN on that clutch slave?

What about an adapter for a 4l60e to a Honda V6 j-series

Hi 👋,,,the clutch cover yellow,,,is 240mm❓❓

Never,! ever,! ever,! start a bolt with a power driver, always, I mean always!!! Start them by hand first! Also don't wind the adaptor plate bolts in u til the plate is fully seated over the dowels! If the dowels bottom out before the plate is flush it will buckle and you can throw it away, all this advice from a mechanic that did a 10.000 hour apprenticeship to learn his trade, and that was 50 years ago
