motor tranny combo
ok this i first my first post so please bare with me on this. i am currently stationed in korea for the us army and when i get home im planning on buying a hatch or del sol (depends what is there when i get home). well my question is i want to build a 250whp d series motor but i would like the gears of a b series tranny... does anyone know how i can do this? i.e. adapter plate or something other than actually changing the gears. any help would be great. thanks

Of course. You can't put magic tranny fluid in and expect it to have shorter gears.

go with the EK or EG...ahah i'm just not a big fan of the sol....as for the tranny, your best would be a custom tranny. I've talked to a guy who build a tranny with different synchros from different D trannys.

Re: motor tranny combo (BlueIntegraBoy)
no no no im not that new just because im new to hondas doesnt mean i dont know anything. i used to drive only old muscle cars but gas prices are a bitch. i just was wanting to know if i could put a different tranny in using an adapter for example ive seen ones for f series motors to h series transmissions. make more sense now?

I understand, but currently there isn't a D2B tranny adaptor. But Bense (Civic/Del Sol moderator) would know pretty much everything on where to start to piece together a hybrid tranny.

Re: motor tranny combo (newric3r)
id agree with bmoua (sp?), go with the EK or EG. Unless you like the del sol more for some reason (that roll down back window is pretty damn rad), the civics would be lighter, and you can do the same thing to them as the del sol sooooooo....why not just save weight? all that translates to is mo' powa 
and if i'm not mistaken, del sol's are rather heavy aren't they?

Re: motor tranny combo (Dorkenheimer)
An ex tranny with a better final drive and LSD will be plenty for a 250whp d-series.
I pray you're boosting it because going N/A will be a hard road for a d-series.
i wouldn't spend that much time on a custom trans unless i'm a hardcore track driver or just had the money to blow.

Re: motor tranny combo (ek forever guy)
