whats the difference between a bolt on engine and jus a normal swap. sorry its a new thing. ive been over seas too long.

 

Bolt on engine is when you bolt another engine's intake ports to the exhaust ports of your original engine, and run them in-line to produce double the horsepower.






















I have no idea what a "bolt on" engine means. h: It's the same thing as a swap, but they're probably just trying to say it's easy to install. (ALL LIES)

 

where did you hear or see this? assume g tiger is right, he had me going though, i assume over seas in the military seeing the Camp Lejeune. glad your home safe and many thanks for your contribution!

 

I guess you mean a bolt-in swap. There are a few possible definitions, depending on who you ask.

1) Direct engine swap, as in pull out one engine and the other engine drops in with original stock parts. Example: putting a B20Z into a '98 Integra.
2) Swap using a combo of stock parts from multiple cars, possibly with a few wiring changes. Example: B18C into a '92 Civic.
3) Swap using a combo of mass-produced swap kits and stock parts from multiple cars. Example: B16A into an '89 CRX.

The general simple definition is any swap that doesn't take serious custom work to install.
