I'm just curious, but i thought i heard someone put a v6 in the engine bay. I can't site (sp?) where, but i'm just curious what the biggest engine you could put in our car is.

(Cubic Inches/Centimeters only please.)

 

site = cite

In for replies, because I'm not sure if anyone has done a swap yet?

 

I've seen K24's and if you are measuring engines by cubic inches you need to go back to the pushrod camp.

 

I think that if I put my mind to it I could get and LS1 or a big block in my civic.

 

^^^ haha, well with enough money, you could really put anything in it.

However I would say the easiest/least expensive swap that would fit would be K24

 

yeah, the K24 out of the TSX would give a little kick in torque but none in HP

other K24's might as well swap in the old K20a3 from the EP's or basemodel RSX's... about the same HP rating

about the cubic inch thing... US manufacturers don't even use that measurement anymore... Think about it... 5.0 Mustang not 302 mustang

When was the last time anything was measured that way? Just curious cause I can't remember

 

LS1 5.7L 346ci.... LS2 6.0L 364ci LS7 7.0L 427ci next question. they still use it and list it but doing put it on the vechile for the most part. Just using liters is nice because is smaller numbers easier to remember.

 

He did also say centimeters which is how you get the Liters part of the engine in which case 1998 cc is what a k20 is. 1590 is a d16z6 1595 is b16.

 

I have seen a honda civic with all the corvette stuff stuffed in including the 6 or eight speed I dont remember. He let me drive it. Oh my word 120 down the freeway stomp on it side ways forever.
