Engine Swap
Hey i had a question for you guys out there. Im new to the import thing and right now I have A 1998 honda civic ex with a cold air intake and magno flow cat back. Im looking for some more horse power that I can use on a dialy bases as a daily driver, and that wouldnt mess up anything. I was thinking about an engine swap and tranny swap? maybe to a low miliage si engine only because it would be easy to get a smog certificate And to make legal and I wouldnt have to deal with to many after market parts IM real serious about this so if you guys had any ideas or suggestion I would appriciate it.. Im also in the miami area If you guys know where to get this done that would really help to thanks alot

sounds like you want an LS motor. no vtec but awsome for driving around town you have power in every gear, good gas mileage, very reliable, rather inexpensive, and very easy to find motor and replacment parts
