So some guy in my town with a B16 in a 95 civic offered me his engine(B16) for my engine(D16) + I give him 500 bucks. His car is still running but smoking real bad, he mentioned something about the piston rings. Is it worth my perfectly running enigine+500 bucks?

 

No.

 

no dont do it. your better off puting a fresh motor together and you still have you d16 there as a back up just in case if your other one craps out, its gonna cost you a little bit more but it would be worth it.

 

Doesn't sound like a very good deal.

 

what year b16a sir 1 or 2 and what kinda d16
check the compression in the b16a do u get the trans and i think it not a bad deal are u trading your full swap for other b16a full swap

 

Not a really good deal unless you really want a b series to tear down.

 

Yea, it is a rip off I think so as well. He,himself, said that the compression was all f****d up!! Not to mention, the car smokes pitch black smoke!!!( again probly cuz of the rings...)

 

I've had an epiphany.

Finally a B16 fanboy saw the errors of his ways.

Realizing he now has a bad engine due to revving it out to 9k all the time just to make it move at all, he has seen the light and decided to go back to the D16. With the good engine he will have and the $500 in hand, he will put a cheap *** ebay header, intake, and a crush bent muffler shop exhaust on. Upset that he still can't beat the Cadillac next to him, he goes to the dragstrip to see what the beast will run. After his first run he has a smile on his face, for he has realized that even though he is slow, he is faster than he was with the B16. Now with a newfound outlook on life and a platform of positivity underneath him, he coins the phrase "slow is fast" and becomes an internet celebrity overnight. Speed and fame are on his side now, but he has a yearning to help others. He thinks of his past and decides to remake an infamous movie. He uses his years of magazine tech article reading to fix the errors of others. "The welds on the intake wouldn't blow, the cool air intake would keep them cold. Alas! The welds on the OBX manifold will crack so I've heard online," he thinks to himself. His movie is a horrible flop. Critics are blasting him for plagiarism and he starts in a rapidly accelerating downward spiral. Alcohol becomes him at night and cocaine lifts him up in the morning, only to bring him to deaths doorstep as alcohol again becomes him. He removes himself from society to a remote island. There he is on the brink of death when a sexpot of a woman washes up on shore. She is followed by some expensive luggage with the initials W.W. etched in gold. The woman thanks the boy for saving her life. "Your saving will be shortlived, I'm an alcoholic cokehead has-been who is out of food." The woman grabs him and gives him a deep, passionate kiss. "That was the sweetest kiss I've ever had!" The boy jubilated. "I know," said the woman. "It's because I've been eating on this ***** Wonka chocolate for weeks ever since the volcano erupted." The boy was puzzled and inquired about the volcano. The woman told him an epic story OF <FONT COLOR="red">300</FONT> SLOVAKIANS who died in a ritual sacrifice soon after she arrived on Volcano Island a Place for Slovakian Refugees. "But why were you on Volcano Island a Place for Slovakian Refugees?" The boy interrupted. The woman then continued on to tell him of her upcoming as a child in England. Cursed as the poor girl of the neighborhood living in a rickety old wood shed with her entire family tree and fallen apples with the West Virginia branch twice removed. She hit good fortune one day when finding a golden ticket buried under the snow. She had won a lifetime supply of ***** Wonka chocolate. Consequently she became fat from all the chocolate she was eating. Now the laughing stock of the English Tabloids, she ran away to America where she joined a fat camp and fit right in. Years later she was skinny as a stick thanks to a coke sprinkled chocolate diet and Trim Spa. Still she didn't feel happy. Off to a voodoo doctor named Phyllis she went and learned that she had a bad heart and it was inoperable. So it was then she decided to travel to Volcano Island a Place for Slovakian Refugees. Touched by the womans story, he gives her a kiss. One thing leads to another and things get hot. Realizing this woman is trying to bang his brains out like no other has before, he closes his eyes and relaxes. But in doing so, he pictures the woman as her previous fatter self on top of him. The boy has no imagination due to years of computer games and day time TV as a child, so he cannot conjure a wingman in his thoughts to bail him out. With nothing left to do to keep his sanity he pictures his 17 year old neighbor. Suddenly the weight is lifted and he opens his eyes. "I'd like to ask you a few questions," Chris Hansen says.

Part II next time I'm bored as **** at school and someone asks a dumb question.
