What's the BEST engine for my Honda?

Answer:
125cc Honda dirt bike motor. It weighs under 50lbs, revs to 10000rpms, and makes 320hp/liter.

There, now that we solved the question that is constantly on everyone's mind, let's talk about pizza.


Seriously now, the best engine for your honda is WHATEVER YOU CAN AFFORD TO BUY!

If you have $1000, DOHC ZC.
If you have $2000, get a 1st gen b16a. It'll cost that much to get it in.
If you have $4000, get a GSR/B18C1.
If you have $5500, get a ITR/B18C5.
If you have $10K, and no use for your car for a month or two... get a K20.
Edited for the Whiners:
This is NOT a complete list, as there are mini-mes, LS-VTEC swaps, budget/poor man's ITRs, etc. Use the damn search button a bit more religiously.

What's the best engine for boost... the one that gets TUNED properly.
What's the best engine for drag racing... the one you spend the most money on making FAST.
What's the best engine for road racing... same thing.
What's the most reliable engine... the one you MAINTAIN religiously.
What's the cheapest engine... the one that's in your car.


There, hopefully when searched, this thread will pull up so people will stop making threads about stupid crap like "what's the difference between a GSR and a B18C5"...the oil caps.

ok like i said i have no budget and i wanna run non Vtec. And i would like 2 know wats the best motor for a drag racing car i would rathetr perfer not 2 use a k20 motor.

 

Project LS Non-VTEC begins.

 

Working on a CRX and i want to know whats is the best motor to put into a CRX i have no budget and its going 2 be a drag racing car not a daily driver car and i will also NOT USE VTEC

 

Did you even look at the link I posted?

 

yea just did srry after u posted i was writing and i forgot 2 click post on my own comment lol but im looking 2 do a turboed motor for drag with alot other work done

 

If your so set on a non vtec motor go with a vtec motor and use vtec killer cams by Toda. That way you get a high reving block, and good flowing head, and cams that make tremendous H.P.

 

well if you dont want a k20 and your trying to make a drag car the next best thing is probably an h22 or an f20b

grrrreat idea, specially if you dont have a budget, most people couldn't afford the 1k for these babies. The proved to be kick *** cams on battle of 10,000 rpm's!

 

D16y8 block with A6 head with a monster cam in it.

 

is there any reason you do not want vtec

 

ls1.
/thread.

you're kidding right ? If you want to prove a point just give me the money and i'll do it. Build a fast car, not an example...

 

you can have vtec and still be all motor.

All Motor 84.5mm x 92mm

 

like somebody already said...
you can be ALL MOTOR and still have VTEC.


but if you insist on staying NON-VTEC..... take a look at this thread:
