Icon5 Best engine swap
I got 334k on my stock engine and clutch. What would be the best fit, most bang for the buck to replace it? Do the JDM motors come with the tranny too, or do I rebuild the stock tranny/clutch to do that? Thanks

I am thinking the LSX 454R with 770 hp @ 7000 rpm.

It really depends what your goal for the car is. If you get a jdm D series motor you can reuse your transmission in most cases.

Very insightful.

If your on a tight budget, you could just cut a hole in the floor boards. Then yaba daba doo it.




It even comes in JDM version.
