so frist off iv done tons of swaps and now how to work on cars pretty damn good


now i am buying a 95 ls teg tomorrow..and the car has a spun rod bearing
my question is should i rebuild the motor(witch will coast me about 500-600$ for a full rebuild)or should i buy one of passwordjdms b20s (and know that the motor is in good shape)....oh yeah i have a gsr head so whatever motor i end up with will be vtec......
what do u guys think?

 

I'm a fan of B20 Vtec's personally, but I'd be looking for a B20Z - 2000-2001 CRV block - and do that instead of the b18 idea..

 

go b20. their tons of fun

 

Yeah definitely, go with a B20 you're gonna love the extra torque and how effortlessly it pulls your car. Considering how inexpensive B20's are now a days I don't see why not. That's the route I plan to take if my B18b ever needs it.

But I see you live in Cali, so you're gonna have to smog under the table and cross your fingers that you don't get rolled and sent to the State Ref. so you don't have to pull your motor out unless you don't mind.

Goodluck

 

thanks for all the help guys.....yeah i was thinking b20 too ...so my mind is made up now......and about the smog im not worryed i got a guy to help me out.....and if i do get pulled over and have to go to a state ref then ill just swap in an ls.....iv done so many swaps ,that i dont care

 

i want a B20 in my db!

 

well im going to start ripping that motor out this weekend and hopefull have the b20 in this weekend too ill let u guys know how it goes and how i like the b20
