i have a 90 dx hb i need help bad

[blueturtle]

first off i don;t rly know how much hp my 16 valve pos stock engine has i know its between 92 and 115 so i want to get an engine swap i just don;t know what kind gathering from what people have told me a b16a has 160hp and costs 900 bucks so i might get that if that info is accuarte or if theres a better engine out there like mabye a b16b or b18c5 i would go for that my only problem is i only have 2500 saved up to do this so my question is what should i do??

[BLU CIVIC]

what are you trying to go for...future wise or are you just wanting a swap?

[blueturtle]

well im looking for just a swap now but i need to save up for a performance clutch short-ram intake 4 to 2 to 1 headers mabye new exaust and i wanna take off my cad convertor

[blueturtle]

i also wanna get the engine either brand new or some miles but not a whole lot and hopefully with an engine with 5 spd tranny that comes with it

[BLU CIVIC]

B18C5 IS PROBABLY THE MOST EXPENSIVE ENGINE TO PUT IN A CIVIC....CLOSR TO $5000 MIUNS THE MOTOR MOUNTS, SHIPPING, AND INSTALATION....YOU MIGHT WANT TO GO WITH A B18C OR AN B16A2

[blueturtle]

do you know how much it would run me up for any of those 2 engines? and how many hp do each of them have? thanks

I'D CHECK EBAY OUT....NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE LIKE EBAY BUT ALWAYS BUY STUFF......THEY CURRENTLY HAVE SOME GOOD STUFF...PUT IN EITHER "B16" "B18" OF "HONDA ENGINE" IF NO GOOD PRICES....THE LOOK AROUND AT DIFFERENT WEBSITES....SURE SOMEONE UP HERE HAS SOMEPLACE YOU COULD GO

is this a good deal 1.7k for less than 40k miles brakes engine 5spd tranny axles (i need a new front axle anyways my boot is torn makes a lot of clicking noises)

[BLU CIVIC]

THAT SEEMS COOL....NOW YOU HAVE TO FIND OUT SHIPPING...I THINK ITS GOING TO BE EXPENSIVE SINCE THEY'RE SHIPPING THE WHOLE FRONT CLIP

[blueturtle]

shipping 500 bucks so it would run me up to 2,200 how much is the engine swap itself gonna cost? prolly 1000 i think

[BLU CIVIC]

i'd go ahead and buy it and put it in the garage or buy a tarpe and put over it...that way atleast you'll have it and save my money to put it in

[blueturtle]

aight thanks man since no 1 has bid on it i sent him an email offering him 1500-1700 shipped hope he takes it then i can afford to still put it in :sun:

[BLU CIVIC]

cool...let me know what happens
