Joey, how much am I looking at for an L33, computer, appropriate manual transmission, engine harness?

Re: if you want an rsx motor check this craigslist ad out
 

Some people claim $500 for the motor, but I was finding $700-900 for sub-50K engines within an hour and a half drive. I'm sure in todays economy (the one where full size trucks sell for 1/5th their value) I could get the engine harness included in that price.

I haven't gotten into the transmission deal yet, but it's a SBC bellhousing so I'm not sweating it. I also have no use for the stock computer, so I haven't looked into that either.

What would you be using... MS or FreeEMS or something else?

Re: if you want an rsx motor check this craigslist ad out
 

$400 Honda AEM.

I see I see... L33 is a possibility for my project now, along with a rotary ( :y ), sr20, ej20r.

Re: if you want an rsx motor check this craigslist ad out
 

I don't like EJ20 and rotaries, and the SR20 is overhyped/too much money for what you get. I would bend my opinion on rotaries if I needed something light and compact.

Sounds like a wierd project if those four engines are options.

Re: if you want an rsx motor check this craigslist ad out
 

Cheap, small, lightweight, reliable (rotary lol) are what I'm looking at. Alluminum block motors that are 30" or less long.

Re: if you want an rsx motor check this craigslist ad out
 

SR20, being iron block, aren't light.

EJ20 aren't a good design. I don't like rotaries becuase they are oil burners, and stock for stock a 10+ year newer EJ20 burns more oil. Sad, really.

I think there are other engines out there that you could get cheaply, that are as good or better than what you are considering.
