i have a 90 b16 hatch obd0 i have a chance to get a b18c5 block im going to use the b16 head i shouldnt have any problems right ? just switch blocks and sensors right ow ya i have hcp mounts if that maters

so what do you all think is it worth it for a b18c5 (its my friends)90,000 miles
for 900$ it dont smoke he really took care of it


what all will i need to do

 

900 dollars for just a short block? i've seen a long block of that engine for sale for 600. besides, why'd he pull it apart?

but, yeah, if you use b16 components, (like sensors, intake manifold, etc.) the swap would be just like a b16a swap in difficulty. might rub your hood like a normal b18 swap would, though.

 

All the swap should switch over easily. As already mentioned, you will have to address hood clearance issues. Most people buy eith a zc hood, or a vis sir cf hood made for a usdm civic/crx.

 

b18c5 type r you found the hole long block for 600? be built a gsr

 

holy **** whtgst did you read your post it sounds like a 5 year old tryin to read the declaration of independence. no one understood a damn thing you just said...

 

you found a b18c5 complete motor for 600?

i dont see how

the motor is worth like 4000

 

well, to be fair, it had broken ringlands, and i didn't run the numbers to see if it was stolen, because i wasn't interested in buying it anyway.

 

$600 for a long block you are smokin some good **** long blocks usually go for over $1500
$900 for a short block isn't bad goodluck

 

heres the deal i know its not stolen ,coming out of a 14.2 1/4 typer

900 i have no choice i must own the c5 lol out with 14s in with 13s
