Want to do a swap, need advice!! I am in CA!!
I have a 96 Civic CX 5 speed and I want to do a swap. My budget is about $2,500 in total. Guys, which way should I go?
1. Get a SOHC VTEC head and bolt to my CX engine? How difficult is it? How much is the total cost? I want a shop to do it and do you know how much is it? Any good shop in San Jose, CA area?
2. Get a D16 SOCH VTEC engine and replace my old engine?
3. Any cheap but decent condition B16A engine?
4. How about smog issue? How to get DMV ok on the swap? I am new to hybrid so please bear my lack of knowledge.
