a B18 is a very expensive swap for this car (mounts are $675, and axles are another couple hundred. shift linkage is extra too). and i lose A/C to do it. the D16A1 bolts right in.
this is a DAILY DRIVER project car.
the car may be a 'hunk' as you put it, but its a 1700 lbs hunk
may i refer you to
this sticky just above this thread?
also, the car is being built for HANDLING. not acceleration. if i wanted acceleration i would not have started with a honda in the first place.
