I have a 1997 RED Hatchback Civic.
I got it with 1300cc engine with a transmission. I want to juice it up with some serious juice. Im thinking of dropping in 1800cc double overhead cam vtech (how many horses does this engine produce anyway). I also considering a1600cc double overhead cam vtech (how many horses does this engine produce anyway ). What do I have to take into consideration, what are the draw backs and or benefits of useing one engine versus another. Guys i need help

 

:doh: ooh man....how many hp does that vtech phone give you...its spelled VTEC. and what engine did it come w/ a 1300cc wtf is that?!

b16a2 produces 160/111
b18c1 produces 170/??? not sure on torque.

 

holy crap you've got a lot of research to do

I know someone here can lead you in the right direction :thumbup:

 

Dude, you seriously need help. Check out http://www.bseries.net for your questions. I know what you're talking about when you say 1800cc but the 1.8 is actually 1797cc - try to stick to L instead of cc because that's how these engines are referred.

Also, DOHC is DUAL overhead cam. You may want to look at the sticky above for "simple questions".

 

wtf is a 1300 in a 97 civic?!?!

 

I dunno man cause I just looked at edmunds and all '97s are 1.6 (or 1600 cc)

Prolly a typo or a "thought that was right"

 

maybe he meant 77 civic hatch. They came with 1300's I think.

 

He is from jamaica. Maybe they got something strange. Doubt it though.

 

hahahaha.. that's JDM right??? :rofl: :rofl:
