RE: motor swaps?
the b16a2 or 3, b16b, the b18b, b18c1 or 5, and the b20b or z, will all basically drop into your car with the proper mounts. give hasport a call @602.470.0065 , they are awesome for info. regardless of which motor you choose, youll need a hydrolic transmission. go with something OBD2 for less hassle. where do you live? is smog legality an issue? and what are your plans for your car?

i live in alabama so theres no smog really just a hole lot of humidity. Well i plan on making my civic a show car. I have a body kit on the way r34 front, evo rear, and boxer z1 sides. I will probably hold off putting it on until i get my carbon fiber hood, trunk, and mirrors so then i will get my car painted. But i have plenty more ideas so i dunno yet. Does anyone knoe abot the new gen Frankenstien motor swap and if i could get it? Its a K24 block/K20A head.

if you have to have a 2.4L I-VTEC, go with the TSX motor. the piston speeds in the k24 from a crv at 8000+ RPM will send pistons flying through your hood. you could always build it, but you're getting pretty deep into the 5-digit range already.
