hey guys i have a 90 civic hatch, and i looking to put a better motor in. i have the jdm zc dohc, now but im wanting to upgrade. ive been told to do all kind of swaps but.... i dont know what direction i should go. alot of people where sugesting the b20b as a good all motor frank but. i have no idea what the swap intells. so wht would be your input on a motor. im not really worried about the money i can always save for the swap. i mean i dont want no k series but i resonable swap that im gonna be able to get power out of later.
if you can help it would be awsome
thanks

 

go with the b18 c1 or c5. you can get all the power you need and then some if.

 

go with a b16a or a ls motor

 

:goodjob:

c1 if you want a lot of boost. c5 if you want all motor.

 

if you dont know what a b20 swap entails, you are not ready for any swap

 

You can go w/ a B16A1 . You can run mid 15's . You also can run the B18C1 but might want to convert to cable tranny since 4th gen civic's are cable. Just go with what you can afford & most important amount of hp you want. Good Luck
