I think you have that backwards..? I thought the correct way was a b18c block w/ a b16 head?

Depends on what your looking to do and how much money your looking to spend. A b-series motor setup has much more potential than a d-series sohc motor (whats in your sol right now).

though for me, you'd have to change it to 10 inches, and you'd have to change inches to millimeters, and you'd have to change 10 to 5 and you'd have to change dick to poor excuse for one.

personally i would find a way to make the nsx motor fit and fabricate it to be RWD. Now that would move.
