i got a 99 EK hatch and i'm puttin a b20 vtec in it, i dont want to have my front end so low that it crushes my headertech header. and i know that when i put a b18a swap into my old EF hatch it was heavy enough to lower it almost another 1/4 to 1/2 inch.


so whats the weight difference between a D16 and a B series swap?


i'll make a kid stand on my engine to see how low it makes it

 

I weighed my car after I swapped in an h22 and it weighed at 2650 or so. I took that against the Honda curb weight of 2512 and subtracted out full tank of gas and what not and I ended up with about 45 pounds difference. Now I'm not sure if that curb weight is with or without gas but if the honda weight is with gas it would be around 80lbs difference.
