2 options... put together an unknown B18B1 or swap in my low milage JDM B20B (obd2 in 96 teg)
Blown motors and what to do..
Okay, somehow a managed to get a piston seized up in the side of my block in my 160k mile b18b1. So I have 2 different choices as far as new motors. Here's the rundown.
The car
it's a 1996 4-door integra SE with a 5-spd tranny w/ bolt ons. 160k miles
Option 1
I have a JDM B20B longblock with anywhere between 15k-30k miles from RS. I could then build the b1 block I have for N/A for a hatch or something later on.
Option 2
I have a bottom end to a b18b1 and the head off of my motor... with them being in rather good condition. I could then sell the b20 or build a beast out of it
Which one would you rather do and why? I am on some sort of budget, but I'm just trying to get the most out of my money.
