Get an H22 and just be done with it. Unless you can't handle the challenge.

Definitely the LS1. Just get some custom made LS1 Hasport mounts and cut out your whole firewall. Oh, and get a CRV drivetrain for the RWD. LS1 FTW!!!

good job on that post vwaddicct07 - he's deciding between two b-series... anywho, b16 is no torque, but it is much less... if you can handle it, just get the GSR, you won't be disappointed.

My b16 sir II complete swap from hmotors was $2600 shipped to NC. Its a good motor but I would definately suggest going with the gsr unless you dont have the extra money like I didnt. I got the b16 because I knew it was going to drop right into my hatch. That kept me from having to spend hardly any extra money to do the swap.

i want to get the motor now, but should i save up for a couple more weeks and get the jdm b18c1 w/ lsd. Is it that much of a difference between that and the jdm b16 w/ lsd?
