Default Does Honda sell crate engines?

Does Honda sell new replacement "crate" engines?

Any idea on the cost?

i'm quite certain you can buy new engines through honda. i'd also be willing to bet it would cost an arm and a leg to do so.

Honda and Acura do sell full long blocks, as mentioned, very expensive!

An rsx-s engine cost like 10G`s

Or get a used JDM engine from an importer. They pull them after 30k miles iirc, and ship them over here.

I was thinking about getting my engine rebuilt and wanted to compare it to the cost of a new factory engine. I think if I get a JDM engine it might need a rebuild anyway. So I wouldn't end up saving any money.

That is an option. I would probably get my engine rebuilt instead.

inlinefour.com sells Spoon crate longblocks. B16A, B16B and B18C from $5900 to $6400. A B16B complete swap from any reputable importer are a great buy at about $4000. Comes with everything you need w LSD. It seems the CTR swaps have very low mileage. After replacing tb and wp, clutch and pp, resurfacing flywheel, you have at least $4500 - $4700 but you'll be good to go.l I just put one in my 94 Si so I'm all proud and braggin here! One of those Spoon crate motors would be very classy, but you could build an all motor longblock for less with all high end components for less. Just find a good solid builder not your buddy from shop class whose dad has a killer set of tools.

any b16 that you buy for high dollar, you will be dissatisfied with, they are all torqueless. go no less than a b18 or b20 in the b series if you want your moneys worth gsr swa make nice dailys that are quick too for a fair frice

if you're already taking your motor out to rebuild it, just do a swap. makes more sense.
