"Go big or go home"
"No replacment for displacment"
"Tourqe wins motor races"
"D<B<H<K<H2B"

Yea. who can afford that tho? maybe in a few more years it will be more cost effective.

Its an H22 with a B series tranny. for its short gear ratios.
H2B will **** all over a K swap, Stock.

I cant think of anything more cost effevtive then an H swap.

how does that work?? is there and adaptor plate that you need to do this or does it just bolt up??

 

yea, its a adapeter plate.
Quatersports sells the best kit, IMO.

It would possibly help if you gave us some sort of price range you are looking to spend.

The Kseries is your best choice if you have unlimited funds, but in the real world, much like the one you live in now its not always financially feasible.

To get the most whp for the $$$ I would suggest

B18b1-T
or
H22 w/ H2B
or
D16z6/y8-T

Just my .02

i just searched it an found a whole thing on it. lots of good info here. thanks

 

I didn't know how cost involved this idea was.
For cheaper, H2b

 

so is just the standard h swap as hard as the H2B swap??

 

What's your budget. This thread is nothing but a gross misuse of imagination until you tell us how much you have to spend and whether or not you can do all the necessary work yourself for this to be of any use at all.

X2 we don't need another dumb *** thread that goes on for 3 pages arguing amongst ourselves and the op never came back. lol

B18b1 got my vote since it's cheap (find one on craigslist.org) and it's very conducive to building/boosting one. Of course, the other B series engines and H are very good for making your money go pretty far.

 

i would say about $4500-$6000 all said and done.

 

k24 from a TSX

 

ls-t.

 

boosting the d seems to be a strong opition.......interesting.
