its the 170hp vtec b18c
its from another car that is being privately wrecked
that makes sense, plenty of people dont properly research pricing before selling their stuff. you would be crazy not to pick that up
i had a neighbor offer to sell me his wrecked 95 LS for $200 cuz he needed the cash , with a perfectly running b18b1 ... but no time or place to do the necessary part out work
x2. If you want a vtec engine just put the head on the one you have now. It has slightly higher displacement. The money you spend on a new engine could be put into the engine you have now unless theres something wrong with the one you have now.
A member here hit 260whp on a c1 with 11psi out of the GReddy kit. If you can find someone to tune, I could see upwards of 200whp being possible with the stock GReddy kit and a chipped ECU. You shouldn't run into as many problems with CARB and you don't need a new engine.
