Re: engine choices for my ek
Depends what your looking for. Full race car.. Daily driver.. Etc.. And how fast you want the car to be.. Budget.. Etc.. Cuz I guess any b-series swap would be the "best fit" for the car since it uses the same motor mounts. But depends what your looking for haha

Re: engine choices for my ek
Oh God... I know your new and all but this question have been asked like a million times already. You need to do your own research first on motors. If I were you, I would get to know all the B series family. Learn the stamps, the liters, the horsepower, the compression, the torque and which ones are vtec and non vtec engines. Wikipedia has your info and so does online motor websites that sells them.
