Any pic's of the crx before you start?

why an F20c? sounds pointless.

And buying a JDM subframe assembly is more pointless. The subframes are tough ----, I've seen solid subframes come out of cars that had rust holes in the floorboards, just sandblast the subframe and it's all good. The VLSDD is even more pointless. Besides the shitty performance, they wear out real fast then suck more.

I measured up the strut towers on my 4G civic, it looks like a front sump SBF/C should fit with 3-4" to spare. You would need to fabricate a tunnel, and probably reinforce the front x-member (since that's where the engine mounts would be attatched) but it shouldn't be any more work than an F20C. An LS1 w/ T56 also costs less than a F20C, and makes more power. It's light too, I know that combo is about 100lbs less than a KA24DE w/ 5spd. The only tricky part is the exhaust, and you could probably pull it off the way that pintos did it (run the headers forward, then curve back and under the x-member).

an ls1 in a crx :l

This'll be crazy no matter what and with Aaron behind all this. The fab work should be top notch.

An LS1 in a CRX! :y

Re: how much is a S14 Silvia rear sub frame assebly worth?
 

Blasphemy!

Or atleast thats what I figured JD would say. Never played with an F20, but I think the LSX line of engines would be a better alternative, for sure. :)

Well, IMO, CRXs shouldn't be RWD. If they have to be they shouldn't be powered by an engine that doesn't deserve to exist. However, to be fair, I am sure a master fabricator could field the sort of RWD CRX that would change my mind.
