it depends on a lot of different things. what kinda condition is ur d series, his b series? what r u goals as far as power? r u paying for labor or doing it urself? there's a million different options. you have to be more specific to get a good answer

what kind of turbo kit are you building up. a cheapo junkyard kit or built good turbo setup?
are you gonna be doing everything ur self? I would have him do a compression and leakdown test on the motor and go from there. be sure to inspect everything and run the vin to double check if its been stolen.

if its a incomplete d-series turbo kit for a complet ls swap i say do it but that could just be the talking but i think everyone here would back me on it for a good deal if its as good as you make it out to be

I'd say great deal for you if you have @$1000 or less in the kit.

i have more than a grand into it..... but i need a diffrent engine


not stolen out of his car he has a few
-power 200ish
my engine? from me shooting it stock with 75 shot i fked up a valve... it runs perfect but u can hear a lil shimmer in it.... not good at all.... i still can touch dad's lighting wayyy 2 quick....

but a b18a ls engine is a low compress engine correct? i am not to much into the import group.... i had american cars before so i dont know to much about import trying to learn and look stuff up but better posting here because quicker respose than looking it up......

thanks HT guys for da help!

LS motor has low compression and awsome torque is you turbo that you will make good power. that motor with just a greddy kit stock mkes about ~170 whp and like ~150 torque. thats what i wanna do. i say do it.

go for the b18b ..its what i have in my coupe, torque is great and decent power.

is it a b18b or b18a ?

you said both in 1 of your post

but jsut read this: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=878010

and it should answer all your questions

if you need the engine and have the extra money for the swap i'd say it's a good deal for you if your planning on the b-series swap in the future, it would suck to sink money into another d series just to turn around and swap it out again for an engine you could be getting now.
