So i just barely bought a del sol this last weekend and would like to do a motor swap right after paint....

Im thinking of 2 options, H22 vtec or the normal 0bd1 B16a3...

Just seeing your guy's imputs. you know more then me surely

So what do you all think? what would i need for both?

I know what i'd need for the B series.


but what about H? I wanna boost it and get somewhere around 300-350 as a DD car. as cheap as possible...

any info is greatly appreciated thanks!!

 

if you want to boost to 300-350WHP, get the B16 (as much as I dislike that engine). The H22 needs to be sleeved if you're gonna boost enough (PSI-wise) to make that kind of power.

B16A3 would be a more straightforward swap and easier to boost.


I do like the H22 though... it's just not that cost effective for this goal.

 

as cheap as possible than turbo a D16z6 V Tec and it will be a great DD. If you have money and want power up their go for the H22 thats a ****ing monster.

 

h2b is my choice

 

I would rather do a Bseries swap and turbo it over the D16....

And i think your right just seeing pro's and con's of both i guess.
B would be cheaper, but would be sick to see an H22 in one maybe boost the bseries then an H22 later down the road!

How many pounds and horses is a B16 stock internals good for??

 

....if you're on a budget...go LS-t. Can't go wrong with that option.

 

x2. Don't need to change internal. Just don't be putting your pedal to the max 24/7.

 

I vote H22

 

How many pounds would you say a LS motor could hold good and SAFE with the stock internals??

Is the LS cheaper or easier than the B16 into the Del Sol?

 

B16 is definitely easier.

not sure about cost comparisons

 

What trim Del sol do you have?

 

its a 94 si. 5spd

Im gonna be starting a build thread here shortly tonight.

I will post the link.
