Civic -> Viper V-10?
 

I have a totally insane question to ask. Could you fit a Viper V-10 into a Honda Civic (1990 and up)? I don't care if it sounds stupid or crazy, I'm not really going to do it, I just want to know if dimension wise would be able to be dropped in? (With radiator and other accesories in back of course) Thanks.... http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emthup.gif

highly unlikely, its way too big as far as tranny and motor wise...but with $$$$$$$$$$ anything is possible.......

its on a list of none recommended swaps......just go with a 20B (two rotor) twin turbo off a JDM RX7 and drop it in the back......

obviously you haven't actully seen the size of the engine.. its massive, you could barely fit half of it in a civic let alone the radiator and accessories...


btw a 20b is a three rotor cosmo motor.. the 2 rotor is a 13b

hey i know a guy who put a Viper V10 into a Jeep Wrangler YJ, (and he was one of the first people in the nation to do it to.....i think) he said that the next time he does that, it will be the easiest engine swap in the world! But everything between dodge and jeep is all mopar parts anyways http://images.zeroforum.com/smile/emsmilep.gif

Yeah, but Jeeps have a super long engine bay, because it's an inline 6 cylinder motor. That's what makes them so easy to swap motors into (I have a CJ-7). Civics have a transversally mounted 4 cylinder...not a long engine bay.

hey since you said that you have a CJ, check out my brothers trail pics.....some good pics, yea i know that its a 4x4 and this is a civic section.....deal with it.....hehehehe
