So I did my research HT I looked up the 96-97 Type R specs and the 98-00 Type R and I found different specs on both.

I went to JDM ENGINE DEPOT.com

Link to 96-97 Type R : http://www.jdmenginedepot.com/jdm_en...al_Engine_Swap

Link to the 98-00 Type R : http://www.jdmenginedepot.com/jdm_en...al_Engine_Swap

And compared the two diff engine swaps . The specs for the 96-97 says it is

Code:B18C Integra Type-R OBD2 Manual Engine SwapYear:96-97Valve Train:4-CYLINDER, DOHC VTEC, 16-VALVEDisplacement:1797 ccHorse Power:200 HP @ 8100 RPMTorque:134 LBS-FT @ 6200 RPMCompression:11.0:1Red Line:8400Transmission:Weight:700 lbs

Then the 98-00 specs are

Code:B18C Integra Type-R Manual Engine SwapYear:98-01Valve Train:4-Cylinder, DOHC VTEC, 16-VALVEDisplacement:1797 ccHorse Power:197 HP @ 8000 RPMTorque:127 LBS-FT @ 6200 RPMCompression:11.1:1Red Line:8600Transmission:5-SPEED LSDWeight:800 lbs

So my question is woukd the 96-97 swap be best for me seems that is has slightly more
power and torque. Thanks HT

everywhere else lists the 98-00 as having more power. it has better cams and a better trans.

From the site you can see it gives you the specs of both so im comfused as to whats the best motor

Someone correct me if I'm wrong here, but the 96-97 motor should be OBD2A, whereas the 98-00 motor should be OBD2B. I'd guy the motor to match the chassis, for simplicity's sake.

Thats still not answering the question of the OP whats the better swap ?

There's like a 5hp difference (cam profiles perhaps) The difference in the swaps are basically in the transmission gearing. The 96-97 has the 4.4 and the 98+ has the 4.7.

Both swaps have LSD but whats the better swap ?

you've been given enough information to make an educated decision on your own. how are we supposed to know what's best for you?

Slightly bigger cams and 4.7 FD would be "BETTER" imo
