Load it into a C-130 and have them drop it from 10,000 feet.

Cheap, fast, reliable. Pick two.

To go fast, you're going to have to spend money.

What is your budget and how fast do you want to go?

WHAT???? dude, you are so whack, have NASA take it up and drop it from outer space. youll go so fast, yur **** will burn up! HAHAHAHA, im evil.

but seriously dude, before you posted this crap, search a bit and read the rules. there are sooooooooo many options, from swaps to turbo to, well whatever you can think of.

I myself would recommend a dohc zc swap, its not the best but its cheap and it has some potential.

thats why they call the zc the perfect swap . me and a close freind both threw rods threw the block, it was fun while it lasted, with bolt ons and good matience, mine was running mid 14.5s with i/h/e gude ecu, fuel rail and fpr, oil change every 2500 miles. good plugs and wires. centerforce stage 2 clutch, it was my baby but then i got addictied to VTEC ahahha

I think a B16A swap goes for cheap now...$1700CDN ($1250USD). I suggest searching for some ideas for your car. I doubt you could get a crate motor from Honda though.

You should generally add $1000 on top of that for mounts, axles, shift linkage, wiring, fluids, and basic maintenance items such as timing belt and water pump, gaskets and seals, ignition parts, etc.

Everything has been done from a B18A to an H22A to a 350ci SBC. Again, what are your goals and what is your budget?

Actually I believe mounts, axles, shift linkage and all those come with swap...because my cousin just got his OBD1 B16A motor ($2500 CDN) and it took 1 night to get the motor swapped in his car and up and running. I'm assuming that he didn't go out and buy those parts extra seeing as he never left the shop as he was doing it and I didn't see any new OEM parts on the shop table.

if it passes a compression test then maybe? It;s a good price, but make sure the condition of the engine is good.
