they are cleaned and tested to make sure they are all up to par. You wont be getting a shit motor, you will be getting a motor that you could eat your dinner off the valve cover.

So a b16 motor has from 140-175 hp?

Does it really make a difference if u do an engine swap from a stock motor? what is the hp on a civic(dx,lx,ex,whatever)?

Whats a stock civic engine 1/4?

How long do these motors usually last?

the B16 is from about 160+. Yes it will help over the stock motor. The stock DX/LX has about 115hp. Times for a stock civic are probably in the low 17s or so. These motors could last over 200K if you maintain it properly.

dude it's not like the japs mark each motor saying if it's been drivin hard or not, i'd guess most of them are though because they have strict emissions over there and if you know you're only going to have an engine for 30,000 miles then why wouldn't you beat it?
