Default spoon civic-how much power?

I always wondered how much power a spoon civic has. i know its bored&stroked to 1800cc's and that they're NA. how quick is one of these civics? i've heard they're not very fast.

There is no such thing as a spoon civic.

You watch too much Fast and Furious. A Spoon motor isn't built for power...it is a stock motor built for endurance racing with tighter clearances and greater efficiency.

that motor probebly puts out about 220 to the crank. its not that much but it's good enough for the endurance racing that engine is designed for. id say that in the quarter mile the civic with the spoon motor would probebly pull a mid 14.
