Default looking in to buying a 96 hatch

alright it has a swapped sohc vtec with a new clutch but when the clutch was swapped but the clutch bearing was not so it makes noise. how difficult is that to replace and how much does the part run? and apparently the evap canaster isnt connected. so how much does that cost and how diffucult? the engine has 93k miles and i plan on doing some light boost and then in the future im going to swap in a b16 with a turbo and go all out for like around 500hp. so let me know what you think about those two needed fixes. thanks

well it all depends on how much you can do yourself. Its a lot cheaper if you can do things yourself and you just have to buy the parts. Look up some DIYs.

You might be better off just saving for the b16 and not wasting money on the SOHC and possibly blowing it. Get b16 build it and then swap it in with a turbo.

ok, so the bearing thing, sounds kinda fishy, but ok. to change it you will have to drop the whole tranny.

the evap can is easy to hook up, on a ek should be a plug and hose lines.
