Re:What would you do with a $5000 budget
Yeah, it requires doing some shaving here and there... I've read (never seen) people fitting it in with just new motor mounts... but that doesn't seem concievable to me as the motor sits so funky (leaning towards the back I think).
Oh well, you know you have a lot of options you could even do an all motor honda and just drop in a b16b (type-r civic engine) they just came down to $3800 + S&H and for another $300 you can get the limited slip for one. Would be a great platform for an all motor civic... Plus if you put type-r badges on your car you wouldn't be rice!

H22 will be a tight fit, good luck with the belt.
i/h/e?Why not go turbo.

A 2nd gen hydro b16a for $800? I think youre thinking about 1st gen cable b16's. This guy has an EK, he has to use a hydro b16.

Yeah thats what I am thinking of doing, just replacing the cam and addion ght efull turbo, interccoler S-AFC setup. I will also get the head rebuilt for more pressure. It should all only cost 3000 total for a nice kit and labor and all. What do you think of that route?
Thanks
