That's quite the Frankenstein truck with all those different parts. I'm anxious to see what it all looks like together though.

Why a honda motor?

Your body work skills are quite impressive! Are you doing this in your home garage? Or in a shop somewhere?

More power than all cept for the SOCH 4.0 and better gas mileage to I bet..
That does look like an s2000 engine.
I like it, Nice work can't wait so see the finished product.

The S200 weighs 2885 pounds and it looks like a ranger weighs about 3600 pounds, give or take a few. But look how much his ranger is missing and it probably weighs about the same as the S200. That motor puts out 240 hp and 162 lbs of torque.

Torque is that it's going to need to spin those big heavy rims. That forced induction system should do nicely though.
