engine swap question
I have a 120,000 mile 1995 civic ex. I think its about time for a swap. I was wondering what all swaps I can get and about how much will it cost. Im thinking along the lines of a b-series or an ls engine.....If you have any suggestions or know about how much for a complete swap and what kind you think i should get please reply

Re: engine swap question (Malachi)
A couple of nice ones are of course b16a2, b18c1, b18c5, b18b w/ turbo (its got low compression, good for turbo), or even an h22a. H22a is heavy as crap and has major understeer so its not usually suggested, but it hauls.

Re: engine swap question (Siturbohybrid)
from what ive heard the understeer can be taken care of with stiff springs up front, a good thick rear sway, and some weight reduction. but you're probably gonna have nasty wheel hop without traction arms like z10's.
