you are going to need more than 1100 to swap in a b16.

you will need mounts, linkage, rear tranny bracket, wiring, and axles, hoses, belts, etc. that will put you way over 1100.

try doing a dohc zc. fun little motor. it will bolt right in. you just have to do some distributor rewiring and you will be done.

oh yeah.... TURN OFF THE CAPS!!!!!

 

how much would the dohc zc run me after i install it.. like full cost?..

 

its not that bad motor alone is about 550 like he said do some rewireing and your good to go but if you dont want to have problems in the future then change every thing (timing belt,water pump,gaskets,ect,) cus if you dont you will hate your self later

 

hwo much for all that... will it run under a grand and would it be deacently quick in my 88 hatch?

 

yeah lets see for parts i would say about 350-400 now thats changeing every thing wich you dont have to do but i would just to be safe and yes it will be quick

 

is your hatch si if not dose it have the MPFI conversion done
if not you need more money
