For a V6 going in there, that is a LOT of angle die-grinding, and a big time weaker frame rail chassis support.

don`t think it's happenin..

how much do you have to spend? If your budget is under $3000 then i would suggest getting a 92-95 civic ex engine. It is called a d16z6 and has vtec. They have 125hp stock and should give your car a nice little boost in power and won't break your check book.

B16A--easy

B18B--easy

B18C--easy

H22A--Trickier and pricier, but still straightforward.

Search on all of those engine codes and soak up as much info as you can. You have a long way to go in terms of learning what to do.
