Thanks for all the input. I got another Q, like I said she has 150k on her, so where and when should I start looking fo a new engine, and what would be the best to get?

Honda motors will last forever if you keep them well maintained. I wouldn't do a motor swap unless thats what you want to do. Dont do it unless you want to do performance on a B series, or you blew your existing motor up. For something like this, I'd wait a while and save up your money. Think about what you want to do. Do you want to stay all motor (like real men :chuckles: ) or want force induction (bah)? Do you want a car that is for all out drag or do you want a daily driver with some balls or do you want auto-x? It depends on what you want to do. All out drag ... go for a B series swap. Auto-x? Then just do the suspension cause thats what you'll need.

All motor is for real men? I almost wet myself after taking my car for a drive with a T3 on it. I'm happy as **** with it, and I don't know if I'll ever go back to all motor with that thing! Boost is not for the faint of heart. I'm dropping about a grand into my block this winter so I can build the bottom end to withstand about 20lbs of boost. It was either do that, and know my setup, and know it's flaws, or buy a B20 and boost it stock. Dollar for dollar, the D ended up being cheaper, and still giving me more power. You be the judge.
