Default 4 swaps 14 hours.....

vehicles....
what they came in with.....
eg with ls
eg with b16&itb's
itr with b18c5
del slow no engine...towed in

vechiles left shop with

eg with built b20 some bugs need to be worked out (engine was ready to drop in after old one was pulled)

eg with ITR swap (put new clutch flywheel and tranny on)

ITR with d15 CX engine...(came in with 195 at the flywheel left with almost 1/3) read more about it here https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=813330

del slow with LS (no engine....easy swap....should have been the fastest...but...someone didn't believe me that the REAR BRACKET FROM A INTEGRA IS NOT the same as a del slow vtec)


yes 14 hours for those 4 swaps.....you don't believe...well....i have plenty of witnesses.....
and basically only 2 people working on a car.....and no....multiple swaps were not going on at the same time....all one at a time!!!

ohh and i drove home in a built b20turbo.....holy crap is that thing FAST!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i own the del slow
i was at auto zone getting an axle and when i cam back the engine was in my car
i was really suprised to see that. I really appreciate chad doing that for me.

also the rear bracket is different on a del sol dohc vtec than an integra
crazy stuff

I can vouch for that. Chad can swap an engine faster than most people can remove their front seats.

Me an my brother can do swaps pretty fast only using hand tools. Takes about 45 mins to an hour to have the complete motor and tranny dropped to the floor. We have never tried to time it though.
