I just got a Crx and now i need to find an engine to drop but im not exactly sure what to go with. I have about 2 g's now and i need an engine and tranny. Any ideas what i should go with?

 

I have a SOHC ZC with 2 trannies and a bunch of after market parts for 800 o.b.o

 

90-93 Acura integra Ls engine there Fast and strong motors they will last you for a long time plus they come with cable tranny. You could also go with the 1st gen B16 out of the Sir's they drop right in.

drop right in? i dont think so....

 

I would like to go with a 2nd gen b16. what do u think?

 

b16a 1st gen.....drop it in wire 5 wires and bam.....you are gone.

 

If you've never done a swap before, stick with a 1st gen b16, like Burlyirishdude said just drop it in and wire it.

 

yeah the 1st gen b16 sounds good, for my first swap, but what tranny would i go with?

 

k20 is the way to go

 

LS because who needs vtec ha ha

 

what is a normal price for a 1st gen b16 with 5 spd tranny, ecu, and the engine harness?

 

k20 all the way!!! lol seriously, a good cheap motor with a bunch of potential (we all know youre gonna be looking for more later on...would be an ls. cheap, strong and bunches of headroom, and who needs STOOPID VTECH (do that to **** you guys off) lol ?? (and if you do need vtec, buy a b16 head and run ls/vtec) haha.

search on Hmotors, thats where most people on here get their motors, supposed to be really good, i havnt got one yet, but when i do, im ordering from them

 

Hmotors&lt;&lt;&lt; ????? what link gos there?

 

Drop a jspec b16a. Doesn't weight much and can have 160 to 170 horses.

lets not get carried away here. they don't just drop right in. unless U call motor mounts, shift linkage, axles, wiring harness, ecu. just dropping in. Good recommendation though, I would definetly do LS or b16 plus a nice t3/t04e turbo setup of course .

 

b16 is nice but lacks in torque buy a d16a6 stock motor some uberdata 96dx pistons stack head gasket fuel pump bigger injectors and t3t4 youll be a whole lot faster than b16 or b18 and for cheaper. check out homemadeturbo.com

 

save the extra grand and get a b18c1

Sure it is, but he said 2gs not 3gs not to mention all that fab work etc, go with 1 gen B16A1 you can stay OBD0 ao convert to OBD1 later on all motor, or you can go LS for turbo or LS- VTEC LS block with B16 head and b16 tranny with LS 5th gear. It all depend on your budget and your mission. Stop and ask yourself, do I want a daily driver or do I only want it for the track.


Track = K20, and H22

Daily Driver= b16A1, LS turbo or LS VTEC etc

 

IMO B20 block with a B16A2 head

 

i would go ls all you need is some ctr pistons with some crower cams and a b16 tranny

 

DOHC ZC goes for 525 on Hmotors and drops right in. You could get the swap done for 1g, prolly turbo with the other 1g.
