Default Just bought a civic need some help

I just purchased a 1988 Civic DX Hatchback for a daily to give the show car a break. The motor has a blow head gasket I am just going to throw another 1.5L in it for now. But later I want to put in a DOHC either B16 or B18 but I am looking to find some where to research all this stuff. Hook me up with some good links on places to purchase performance parts and motors and what not.

I figured some one could help me out I have been looking at stuff in yahoo and msn. I have been building show cars for 9 years and have never really messed with the civic I am just looking for help. I drive the show car every day and decided to stop driving it so I can finish it that is why it needed a break.

Thank you x-static I am glad some of us can read. Just cause I'm new to this forum doesn't mean I don't know my stuff I wish people that were on these were more helpful instead of using their computer to make themselves feel tuff. I ask a simple question and the first reply I get is try yahoo newb. Welcome to the forum thanks alot NitrousDreamz keep dreaming.

search mpfi wiring/swap too. if you plan on putting a b-series, or a non-carborated motor in your car. and don't pay attention to the assclowns here, there is a lot of them. and nice *** car, i was thinking of doing that to a 2 gen 4-door teg, airbags, or air-ride. and 19's as my daily.....it will be an automatic too with power steering, a/c, and mother ******* heat. because right now, my hatch doesn't have heat, and it is cold in florida...weird. oh yeah, welcome to h-t.

Second of all give the dude some slack, he's asking a question and not asking to talk to an *******
