Details & Inspection Notes
This is a JDM Honda S2000 F20C engine, the inline-4 built specifically for the S2000 when it launched in late 1999, running a compact aluminum block roughly 224 mm tall with an 84 mm piston stroke and FRM-lined cylinder walls.
What's included
This unit comes as a matched engine-out set: the complete head and block, the ECU, the 6-speed transmission with its shifter cables and shifter box, and the intake and exhaust manifolds. Rounding out the accessories pictured with it are the ignition coils, the alternator, the power steering pump, the fuel injectors, the AC compressor and the fuel rail.
What makes this engine distinct
The F20C is known for an unusually high 8,900 RPM redline for a production engine, the main reason it's sought out over other naturally aspirated four-cylinders of similar displacement; factory output, torque and compression figures vary by model year across this engine's production run.
Who it suits
Because the ECU, 6-speed transmission and shifter assembly are included as a matched set, it suits an S2000 engine-out rebuild or a swap project where keeping the factory drivetrain together matters more than sourcing a transmission separately.
Common questions
Does it include the transmission? Yes, the 6-speed manual transmission, shifter cables and shifter box are included.
What's the redline on this engine? 8,900 RPM, unusually high for a naturally aspirated production four-cylinder.
