my engine died last week and I need to get a new one.... my budget is 1800.00 not a dime more.... does anyone have any suggestions on what engine I should get..... and from where,,,,,

thank you for your help

 

just do a search, honda-tech would have half the post count it everyone would quit making threads asking this exact same question! search, mane.

 

You could always by my 88crx si Engine, with 180,000 original kilometers on it for $250 + shipping

 

Complete DOHC ZC swap or a d16z6 (any D-series,but those are my fav.)or an LS swap-possibly a b20 non vtec.they can all be done for less than 1800.

EDIT: Assuming you can do the swap yourself. You'll save alot of $$ that way

 

can i do a first gen b16 swap? (including all needed parts, axles, motor mounts etc) for the 1800.00
assuming I do it my self........

thanks for the feedback

 

hmmmm, you could save alot of $$ by going to http://www.jdmshit.com and getting there mount and shift linkage package.

b16(local if you can)-900-1200
hcp mounts and linkage-325 shipped
axels-???

etc... its possible

edit: didn't see the core charge Bastards! It is still dueable though

 

thanks....

the biatch is going to be to find a local b16... living in tallahassee.... there aren't many options........

 

You should try to pick up a ls and do that swap, Than later on you can sell it or build a LS~Vtec. Try this site http://www.car-part.com See if there is any local junkyard selling a b16(search for Del Sol engine) or a LS engine in your area. Even a b17.

 

thanks for the help

Sure get a LS if you wanna replace cams, or have your piston blowing through your walls, those engines arent ment for high rpm's, low R/S.
B16A would be worth your time and money!
