Re: should i drop a v-tech in my 85 lude?
you can drop a 96 JDM H22a for around $2500...WELL worth it... 2.2 Vtec is mondo improvment over 1.8...you will be pulling 200 horses no questions...add a nice AEM cold air intake($200), DC header($250) and decent catback exhaust($250-350) and you will fly. Add turbo if you really want to have fun ($2500). Send me pics if you do!!!

H22A will not drop readily into the 3rd gen. $2500 would roughly be the price of the engine and tranny ALONE.
With 6k, I'd almost be inclined to tell you to get a different platform to work on. There are better (cost effective) cars out there.
