Another Accord Question
 

I just bought an 86 Dx 5 Speed. Its perfect but,it has a carb :'(. I also have an 89 lx 5 Speed thats wrecked in the back. What would I have to do to swap out the old carb and and swap in the intake manifold from the 89. Or is it even possible.
Thanks

if its an lx it has a carb on it to, is it an lxi?

Re:Another Accord Question
 

Yeah sorry man. Wasnt thinkin. It is an LX-i. I thought they was the same ???

Re:Another Accord Question
 

you would need to put the whole harnessin there, its a pita

Re:Another Accord Question
 

So its possible. The lx-i is complete. What all would I need?

Re:Another Accord Question
 

anything is possible if you have the time and money to do it

Re:Another Accord Question
 

I have the time...but not the money. How much do you think i would need. Is this a more complex swap?

Re:Another Accord Question

Re:Another Accord Question

Re:Another Accord Question
 

hahha not too hard? add an ecu car harness, engine harness, cluster... everything. :) i remember i was gonna do this to a girls car, but it was too much ---- to do, besides the carb'd one got 600+ miles per 20 bux of gas :)

Re:Another Accord Question
 

I've riden in a 88 accord boosting at 17psi. ------- sick as all ----. Then I got slammed into the ------- dash cuz the clutch slipped and chatter like a bitch. ---- the A series for two reasons. No good lsd available and no goddam clutchs available.
B-series ownz your ass.

built b18a powered 87 lude si coming to a track near you.

but yeah go to 3geez there are at least 4 or 5 people who know what the hell they are talking about.

Re:Another Accord Question
 

my accord is about 2400 so its a little heavier than most civics (it used to weigh 2700+) but about clutches, there are a few good ones available now... like the one i have (6 puck clutchnet dual diapram pp)the only downside is like you said, no good lsd's available
