which motor for my 4dr
sup ht... i have a dilema, well sort of. I have a budget to work with and a couple options for my motor
1. h22a4 (non SH) full swap
2. b16a2 full swap
3. throw a turbo at my d16y7 ( which is attached to a slushbox)
4. build the z6/a6 motor i got sittin for boost
every option besides #3 means im gonna switch to a manual tranny, which is good cause the auto is slippin a lil bit, but i really dont mind the auto tranny considering all the driving i do every day, it just that it's sooooo slow...
any opinion appreciated, thnx

i can get all these done for my budget... got 2 or 3 b16 swaps, for 1800; h22a4 for the same... or build the single cam...
i think the h22 would be good for the tourque it has, to pull my 98 4dr civic
thnx, for the opinions, keep em comin... ne one have an h22 in a 4dr... or b16, pretty stock, what did you run at track????

Re: which motor for my 4dr (akdasniper)
we should email one of the moderators to start a new forum. it should be called
"what engine should i get for my civic" forum. so maybe that way we can stick to the technical questions on this forum.

so i went to my local shop, All About Performance, and pistons rods, all new gaskets, arp head studs, timing belt, etc., plus rebuilding the tranny and a new clutch (this all adds up too quick) is gonna run me 2500... i still need a turbo for the single stick to be quick... so now, even though boost gets you laid, i think i might go H22... help me with my "FINAL ANSWER" lol
