I not gonna swap right away... I have about 25K right now, so I'm thinking maybe swaping when I have about 75K miles on it. If I average about 30K a yr, I'll be swapping in about 3yrs. By that time, prices on 2001 RSX Engines should be lower

Actually, will the RSX engine cost alot? I know B series like a b18c cost alot, but that is because everyone wants them. Common Swapping in 7th gen civics will take some time to get going most likely. A knowledge base needs to get built up

KAMIN-is hasport really making a engine mount kit for the 7g's ????? That would bo KOOL!!

i heard people getting wrecked RSX motors cheap because there is no demand yet. no one knows what the **** to put em into. find one and buy it now and wait for a kit or info on how to drop it into your civic.
