Keep the stock motor and keep it bone stock, you clearly can't think for yourself, so modding will pose a BIG problem.

My guess would be you. I'm not sure though. LMAO. But really what did you expect when you came to h-t and asked what motor to swap in your car? But all aside just do a b series it seems the way to go. Or if your ballin I heard them special K's are getting cheaper.

Are you all serious? The Q was hypothetical. If you had the car what would you do to it? I wasnt asking what you want me to do to it. Even if i was.. who gives a ****. Its just a Q either way. Some ppl take **** to seriously is what im saying..
Anyways.. this thread is done now i think.
Ill keep my thoughts to myself from this point on.

since most people can't seem to read the RULES.....

if you had no budget...i would hit the scrap yards...most sell motors at the same price not matter the motor. And if you found a B-series with cable tranny(91-93 integra) that would be your "holy grail" as it would need 3 mounts and shift linkage, but after that will drop right in. Nothing else would need to be changed, just your engine wiring harness, but that will plug right in to all the motors sensors and plugs.

plug in the ECU, and start up and Enjoy(hypothetically speaking of course)

There is a search. Most people in your shoes with your car would not be on here asking what to swap. They would be out looking for a swap or just driving their car. I'm not trying to be rude. But also WATCH YOUR MOUTH from what I understand they don't like cursing in these forums. I'm not going to rat you out but I'm sure a mod might chime in here and warn you soon for your behavior.

I'd stay B. I really don't like how the ground/hood clearances are on K's, and it seems that the weight is all very far forward....but it may just be how it looks. Theres a lot of parts for B's and they are an easy install.
