Default Looking For

So I've been snooping around for just about anything that I'd be able to put on or in my '82 Civic. Been looking around for parts but can't find anything . Really thinking about dropping in a V-Tec from a newer Civic so I could have a larger amount of upgrades and such avalible. Any ideas or suggestions?

How much fab work do you want to do? An S2K engine will take lots and lots and lots and lots.

With an S2k, you'd have to convert to rwd, which would be a pain in the ***. I'd say get something like a b16. They're cheap (as far as engines go), and it would be a big step up from your engine (and it's vtec).

(and the reason you can't find parts for your car is because it's 25 years old )
