At some point a S2000 lost control and wrapped the back end around a tree or pole. Unfortunatly the body was lost but the S2000′s heart got a second chance. The 247 horsepower F20C found a new place inside the engine bay of a 1965 Ford Cortina. The F20C is using all factory wiring and ECM. Also installed is a full roll cage and upgraded suspension to help this classic iron in the turns. The car currently weights 1,800 lbs which is roughly 1,000 lbs lighter then a S2000.

Hey, great conversion especially on the Power to Weight. I’ve stuck a few different engines in Cortinas over the years and still have a soft spot for them. Let us know how it goes.
Hey I’m wanting to do the swap myself so any info on engine mounts an drivetrain swaps would be greatfully recieved
