one more thing, how and what type of product do i use to shave side mouldings?
your help is greatly appreciated.
I'm not too sure on weight. I do know a stock b16 (cable tranny) in a 90-91 hatch will get you low 15 second track times, with a little more money mid-14 second runs aren't too hard to come by.
a buddy of mine has a 89 civic hb with a b16 (cable tranny) and basically a b16b conversion, cams, built head, etc. and has managed to pull a 12.8 run with a 75 shot + slicks.
Just for a comparison.
