I know a little about Honda's, but nothing from the 70's Honda's. I was searching the CL and found this:

In 1979 was it possible to turn 12k? in a Honda?

How much power would this lil turd put down?

I highly doubt it is worth 1600?

I could figure out what to put it in, but what transmission and where the hell do you find it, or parts for it?

The S600 was a 606cc engine that had a 9,500RPM redline so its possible but it only made 57HP at 8,500 RPM. So power won't be their unless you put it in something ridiculously light.

I dunno if I would buy that, especially if it has been sitting around for a while. It is likely you will need to rebuild it and I would guess that you can't find parts for it just anywhere. If you want a small, high-revving motor for cheap you can always get a motorcycle engine.
