engine size question

at the moment i have my civic coil-overs all the way down in the front and was wondering if i got either a zc, b16a, or the b18c swap,,if i would be able to keep it that low or if i would have to raise the car up,,,cause i heard someone say that with there b16a engine they had there civic lowered 2.5 inches and that his exhaust manifold was hiting the ground.

If you put in a b16 into your car and it's dropped all the way down, then you will be scrapping on speed bumps and such. My car does and it's not dropped all the way. But the 4-1 header doesn't help either.

Yeh i wouldn't drop it that low. Since i'm using HCP mounts which sets your engine lower, i scrape not that bad though. I dropped it 2 inches.

Shit... never thought of that. I'm getting my B16 swap on Monday and I'm on a 2 3/4 in. drop on 15's w/ 195/50/15's. Hope I'm not dragging motor on my way home?!

so if you have coil overs raise it up a little to you figure how low you can go...

No coil overs. I got Goldline Drop Springs. Oh well.... I guess we'll just have to find out?!

How do those springs ride ?
