Whats up guys. I just recently became the proud owner of 2000 Honda Civic EX and unfortunately blew the engine the next day by sucking water up through the cold air intake and is in the shop at the moment. But I will be getting it back this Friday With a minime swap.

I really look forward to being a part of the forums and the Information thats comed along with it.

you could have put in a b16a2, b18c1 or b18c5 is what remmy is talking about. these motors would have fit in your EX with more horsepower than your ex.

welcome to the forum

I Realize I could have got a bigger and more power full engine but this is all I could afford and find for the moment but I will be playing with my previous engine in the meantime and maybe drop it back in again in the near future.
