<< I know I'm a little late on this, but I think you're right about that whole "1% stupider" thing. It's kind of ironic that you wrote that...it seems to prove your theory, as "stupider" isn't even a word. >>


LMAO...see I'm right! Ahhh my poor brain!

JoeyTStyles, he said in Tech Stuff that he had his engine taken out and tried the B18C5 and it didnt fit so they put his D block back in. Then again he was a n00b so it was probably a bunch of $hit anyway.

Hey people, I'm no expert on this stuff, but it seems to me that the B18C would be cheaper and easier to install in our cars than a K20 for a few reasons

1. the K20 rotates the opposite direction as ours
2. the B18 rotates the same
3. the k20 seems to be a little larger than the B18
4. the K20 sits on the right side of the car, our engines are more to the left
5. the B18 just looks more like our engines(at least from the top)
6. our entire engine bay is configured more like an Integra Type-R than a RSX(I personally compared mine to an RSX and Type-R)

just my observations, please don't flame me, just help enlighten me!

It won't work. You must be in the stupid upper class to even make it work. You gonna have it stick out the top of your hood or somethin? That engine is way too big for our Civics.
