Engine question

eagle1221 · 10-09-2009

Im new here and I bought a 91 civic 2dr Hatch and im looking to do a engine swap. What would be the best bang for my buck? Im not looking to make a race car just would like more power instead of stock power. Also could use some suggestions on headlights, tailights, body kit, and exhaust. I want to give this honda a makeover.

Sounds like me, I just bought a '94 Civic DX Coupe & Plan on changing the motor in the spring and giving it a lil make over. Motor wise...I say a B18...180hp I believe, which is what I'm probably going to put in my car.

b18 swaps out of an integra ls are nice you meet the b18 block with a b16 head (vtec head) is really nice.. Dont put no stupid bodykits or anything on a EF old skool hatchy.. Thats to much rice for them.. a motor swap is the best thing

Yea bang for your buck is going to be with an LS b18. lil more power then what you have now and alot more torq. WoW torq on a honda did i realy say that. Check with www.hmo.com for a complete swap. But you would be vary happy with this swap. Cheap and easy.
I also agree no body kit.. Maybe look into www.Passwordjdm.com or www.JDMShit.com for some nice new make over stuff.
