Idle thought... Interesting engine swap for a lude?

F20C from an S2000?

I'm just curious. How similar is the block to other f series engines? If basically the same, then on the face of it it, would be an easy swap into a 2.0 lude (and a unique/evil one at that) compared to a K series swap?

According to wikipedia, it's very different to other F series engines, but 'shares basic dimensions', which suggests to me it shares the same block? That would also tie in with still using the F series tag rather than K, right?

dont the engines in the s2000 range rotate in a different direction to ludes?

They do yes.

Done a bit more reading and I'm right about the block...
See here interesting Frankenstein build with F20C and H22 components and a K24 crank, to make an F24
