I was thinking long and hard about this and after much debate I decided that I'm gonna drop in a Ford 4 banger or a v6. I am tired of hearing the pathetic whiny riceboy sound. I want that "musclecar" growl. Anyone have any experience with this? I know at least a few people on here have done similar.... Let me know. THanks!

 

you won't get it from a 4 or 6 cylinder, ill tell you that much.

Yes, lets all run out and drop motors with far less HP, far less technology, far less aftermarket support and R&D into our hondas just because you dont like the banchi from hell, motorcycle on steroids scream of a Honda?

Umm... Il pass on that one

 

Ford-Cosworth anybody?

The 1.6L Cosworth motor's configuration of 81.0 Bore by 77mm stroke has been used in Honda B16A and Toyota 4AG motors.

A friend of mine told me back in the 70's Cosworth sold 220hp fuel injected 1.6 for Fords in England.

However, the only motors worth building are Honda motors. No other manufacture puts a forged crank in every engine model. Porsche might but that's it.
