Default crx with b18 or cavi with ecotec

my friends are telling me that swapping a b18 (no vtec) into a crx is going to make a better car than swapping a newer ecotec engine into my old body-style cavilier.

i thought the crx was a honda minimal econobox without any nicities the cavilier has. but it it a good enough engine swap to make up for how the crx isn't really in the same class as the mid 90s cavilier/sunfire platform?

Why would anyone tell you on a Honda Forum to go with a GM product Also read the rules.

Before posting in ANY forum, you should read the terms of service.

<FONT SIZE="3">Things YOU can do to help your Moderators</FONT>

If you plan on posting a new topic try the <FONT COLOR="red">search</FONT> first. It has more than likely been covered before. A link to the <FONT COLOR="red">search</FONT> function is below. https://honda-tech.com/zerosearch. remember to search in the "CRX /EF CIVIC FORUM", archived as well as recent topics. If the <FONT COLOR="red">search</FONT> doesn't work well for you, try to post a specific topic so we all here can answer your questions quickly and correctly.



Police yourselves. Report a thread if it's turning into a huge flame fest, or if it's clear that there is misinformation or the thread is clearly in violation of the rule. The moderators are human and can't be here all day every day and catch everything.

<FONT COLOR="green">FYI</FONT> - The report post button is right below the posters name and looks like this:


<FONT COLOR="blue"><FONT SIZE="3">Things to remember</FONT></FONT>
a. Remember to use the term FAQ when searching. https://honda-tech.com/zerothread/1508680
This covers, engine swaps, brakes swaps, DIY's, general information, and more!!!!!

b. Also remember to use the <FONT COLOR="red">SEARCH</FONT> https://honda-tech.com/zerosearch most topics have been covered

c. When making a new topic make thread titles DESCRIPTIVE. This makes searching for threads much easier. "Help Me" "Having Problems" do not help future people search for potentially the same issue you are having. These titles will be changed to help future searches.
