Personaly I think the K- Series swap is a rip off.
The engine is like 6 grand, the frrekin mounts are $750.

I can think of plenty of ways to go faster, for cheaper.

What does everyone else think ?

I think thats whats so wonderful about hondas. Most of there motors have really high pontential and you really can't go wrong with any of them. If i had a choice i would go b over k just because its cheaper and the potential is high and more to it and it'll never change.

Re: 88-91 k-series engine mounts

Are the heads between the 160 hp and 210 hp swappable? It might be cheaper to buy the base engine, and buy the head from some idiot who overred their RSX.

Yes, especially in 4th gen Civics... Maybe in an EK or EG, I think the K series would be a sweet swap, those things are NA monsters.
I like NA.

Re: 88-91 k-series engine mounts

I think its a great swap, just very costly right now. As the prices go down in the years im sure its going to be a very popular swap.
