Bob, I believe that Honda uses a foam casting methodology to produce their S2000 engines. Many blocks and cylinder heads using this production method have problems in the long run. For example, Saturn had major issues with the cylinder heads on their 1.9L engines, which we wrote about in another article.

I wish i could say the same for S2000 engines. My 2005 needed a new head at 40,000 and even thought it was 4000 miles out of warranty the dealer went “halvsies” so it cost me $2,500. Then at 70,000 miles the head is gone again and a longtime nagging oil leak [into the water] is now considered a probable casting flaw in the block! [no kidding - my long time every experienced mechanic and the honda dealer [off the record] actually agree on this one!]. so much for S2000 engines…….thanks to LME in general and Lori Rose specifically for helping me out, you folks are the best!
