Think bout doing an engine swap I have a 2000 Honda civic hx think bout going k20 never did an engine swap is it compatible and how often should I change my oil for an older car like this

 

You need to pick a budget and research for within that budget in the FAQs on this and the Hybrid/swap forum on here. Also I do my oil at 5k intervals with normal 5w30.

 

B18C1
B18C5
K20
B20

or if you wanted to go a little more creative and badass

H22a
any J32

Just so you know the j32 is a v6. You can see j32's in Ej1s on youtube, and it's pretty sick. Very torquey for such a small car.

 

Budget/goals/mechanical experience?

 

Thanks for all inputs guys

 

I'm not endorsing anyone but here are some "typical" pricing for most swaps + installs

^ sounds right for a "done right swap", a K20 swap isn't simple OP nor cheap stick to a drop in b-series if you DIY expect to pay 2-3K for everything.

 

You need to do more research if your unsure of something as simple as oil changes.

 

 

Without knowing this, people are just throwing opinions at you...do yourself a favor and answer these few simple things

 

OP, I'll sell you my complete B16B (CTR) swap for your civic. You'll be in total 1/2 the price of doing a K swap.

 

I spent 10 grand on my k swap didn't skip anything
