What is the biggest engine that can be dropped into an 87 lude??

 

I'm sure either a Chevy 350 or a Hemi would be just prefect...

 

7.3 turbo diesel as long as you got a torch and a welder make it happen, but then you'd belong in the forced induction forum? Crazy torque though!

 

2nd gen right? I dont think i have seen anyone swap an h22 in there. I'm pretty sure you can swap a b series motor in there tho.

 

b16a1 maybe???? if so what else should i change along with it to get the most power?

 

I know hasport makes a kit to put a B series into an 84-87 civic... I don't know how different the chassis is from the lude to the civic in thos models but maybe with a little work you could make that happen? No idea, you maybe breaking some ground here

 

hmmm i do think its a lil bit differnt i know the engine bay is def a lil bigger if anyoner knows anyhting bout the differences it be much apprciated lol i would love todrop a b16 or h22 but like dude said i dont think they ever made a h22a swap for 2nd gen's

 

h22 is the biggest engine you can put.

 

mmk wat else couldi dorp in there to get the most whp

 

Having owned my 86Si for 19yrs, I can tell you that, with a few exceptions, nobody makes squat for our poor old 2gens. As far as a swap? Well, you can put anything anywhere if you want to badly enough! I think I'd stick with the B series though.

 

heh i found a greddy turbo for my 87 ^_^ 2250 for it muahahahahah comes with EVERYTHING

Don't get ahead of your self, turbo is a huge commitment, you have to decide if that is the route for you, a swap looks to be do-able be patient, don't be rash.
