what engine swap for my 95 civic hb?
what engine for my 95 civic hb should i go for? im thinking b18c, h22a, or f20b (according to http://www.jdmhondaparts.com it would fit with motor mount swap). what will give me most horse power and reliability? thanks guys. oh by the way, i am open for suggestions on other engines other than these three.

What way are you goin with your set up? Turbo, N/a, track, daily drive? If your goin turbo i would go with the B18c. If your goin N/a i would go with the H22a (i cant really say much for the F20 cause i didnt really hear anyone with it) cause the H22a is bigger. Thats just my .02 I saw a pic way back when of a H22a turbo in a eg so that could be done too. Good luck

If turbo, then i would really go with the B18c. Or even better just get the head and a B20 block. That would fit alot easier then a H22 turbo, know wat i mean?

like Luserkid said! What are your plans? Drag,Autocross,Daily driver, Track only?
Unless you have idea of what you plan on doing with your car. You will not know what you want to put into it and you can end up waisting money!

btw..should i get the obd1 or obd2? i heard obd2 compensates for your aftermarket parts...and makes them less effective.

Hey Trav, why would you pick NA over turbo for drag? I would think that NA would be better for autocrossing then drag. Just wondering.

Re: what engine swap for my 95 civic hb? (trav)
depends on what and how much you put into it. do you have a goal like how fast you want to go in the 1/4 mile? how much HP your looking for at the wheel?

im just getting into autocross. but my friends is a instructor and been in autocross for years now. he was telling me that both NA and turbos do real well in autocross. but he said suspension is by far the most important. Duh I figure. Thats why i started my tuning with my suspension!
