FAQs are here for a reason.

 

read my question b4 sayin read da faq. i asked if their is any OTHER engine swap possible other than k20 n b18.

 

4 example how about a b16a?

 

And if you read more than the faq and searched you would already know the answer. To answer your question theoretically you could swap a b series. It wouldn't be cost effective and in some cases not legal.

 

Only Kswaps will work.

No B's, older D's, H's, F's, R's, J's, NOTHING...

Bud, I thought you would have noticed this already. You've been here a while. Haven't you noticed the numerous threads with people asking this same question?

To answer you directly, the only feasible swap (money wise) would be the K-series engines. B-series engines (mount up the same, so B18's mount up the same way B16's do), are EXTREMELY difficult and costly to swap into the 7th gen chassis.

 

think about it, if we could do b18, don't you think we could do b16's too? duh.

but can we do b18s is the real question?

Yes, we can... Case in point:



But the real question lies in the fact of commercially available parts to DO that swap.

That is the only B I know of in an EM2, and ALL of that was custom fabricated stuff. Nothing from the car is commercially available.

 

well kids, there you have it. b18 is doable in the em2 chassis. now go do it!

To be legalistic, it was a B16/B15 Hybrid, but they all mount up the same.

kk everyone i get the point lol i was askin out of curiousity cuz yup ive officially given up on making my civic fast lol i just found out me n a friend are gonna swap to cars we had lying around, im switchin my 86 chevy pickup for his teggy i believe its a 91. so that means i finally got myself a project car. gonna start with gettin out the motor n ect so i can do the $50 paint job. then ima save up money, until i can actually spend money on enginewise. im going to make it a b18b (ls) boosting, and then later on slap on a vtec head. what you guys think?

facts are...if u have alot of money u can swap any damn thing you want.

 

yea but expletive it, im leaving my civic as an everyday driver and i like my ls boosted teggy w/ a vtec head idea better, plus its A LOT cheaper...

 

I think you'll have fun with it, but I'll stick with my 7th gen until the bitter end.

Best of luck, though, bud.

 

thx man, i know its not the right forum but ill posts pics n updates from time to time so you guys can see how its coming out.

 

Ive thrown around selling my 7thgen or sticking with it for some time now, and Im pretty sure this will be the car to have in 2-3 years. As it is the best looking, and lightest of the "newer" model civic's.

 

yea same i keep going back and forth to see if i wanna sell it or not, but i think im just gonna keep it for a while longer cuz it actually looks nice and doesnt waste gas as much as everything else, and thank god cuz i drive around a lot.
