i agree, the prelude definitly should have been rwd. i was just looking at that black one last night.

so i think i'm gonna do it. why not right? i have pretty easy access to a k20 head if i wanted. and a garrett t3 will be arriving with the car.

if you happen to stumble upon some mounts, post up please.

Just curious...how do custom fwd axles cost if you bring in both axles you want converted? LIke for this setup the K-series axles and then the H series axles? I have another idea for a swap but it'd still be a FWD setup so that's why I'm curious?

just contact www.driveshaftshop.com they should be able to help you with the info... I also agree with the prelude should have been RWD i am thinking about finding a 92-96 prelude and fabing a F20c in 1 with tranny tunnel and everything... shouldnt be 2 hard make custom mounts, drive shaft, & mount a rearend (id use either a Silvia or RX7 seeing the s2k rear's are weak!!!) other then that its all wiring, O and spring rates... Also i would tie the frame together for more support...

Just sent them an email on axles that would allow a 4G63T to be used in a Volvo 850. Screw that wacky *** 5 cylinder.

I'm not into Euro trash but I really miss my Volvo and know the guy who has it now and it's still just sitting in his yard with a warped head. Plus I've started to rub elbows with guys loaded with 4G's for cheap. Hmmmm That's why I asked about the axles cause there's more then enough room.

why bother putting a K into a lude?? H22's make the same power, can be had for cheaper, and bolt in no sweat. you can save all the xtr-a dough you just spent on mounts, K-poop, engine/trans, axles, etc etc etc and boost that ----

i waste time with preludes because civics and what not are a dime a dozen. you dont see, atleast i dont, that many preludes compared to civics.

i'll bother putting a k in my prelude because when was the last time you saw one? aside from the pictures above. h22 are basically stock in all ludes nowadays. they're cool and all, but i want something more original.

joo know?
