i have a 92 civic and i was thinking about a b16a, but i don't want to be like every civic around. my buddy does alot of swaps and said he could do an h22a. but i wanted this swap to be a learning experiance. mainly what motor should i use.

 

i guess ill tell you before everyone else does..."there is a sticky for this dude."

there is no best engine....different engines suit different applications...(IE) b18b1 great for boost etc etc...

PS every swap is a learning experience

 

d15 8 valve non vtec

 

its already has a d16y7 out of the 97 model i had this motor boosted before, i was looking for all motor

 

im looking for all motor

 

id say b18c5 (type-r) high compression = good for all motor


or boost one of those jdm 1.3's

try not to look to hard next time.

 

the price on a b18c5 swap is a preety good bit
i found a b16a for 1500 complete swap and a h22a complete swap with lsd for around 2500

 

Swap in a K20.

 

i drove my friends new si and it isn't that great, my other friends 94 integra bet it and is has a header back and intake on the integra

 

power to weight ratio... duh

 

th new si got 197hp, and the integra got around 145

 

still i need to decide what motor to buy and put in

Take your pick based on price and what you are doing with the car. Cant really go wrong with any of those listed.

No torque. You can build an allmotor application from a b 16 but it will suffer off the line.

 

To be honest do the H22a with a b series tranny and you will be smoking tires as long as you want.

h22a + ITR tranny = awesome

 

with b18c1 you get good torque,18 instead of 1.6 and tons of room to grow
