92 teg 160k burnib oil
I have 92 teg ls w/ 160k on it. i typically add a quart every full tank of gass, so weekly.
i originally thought i was leaking so i tightened up my valve covors which actually did help a little. but i am still burning more then i think i should
Although i typically am a very aggressive driver and do shifts right around 6 to 6.5k.
so is it my driving habbits that are burning oul or my engine running bad.

Probably both. Most likely you will burn less oil if you don't shift so high. And the engine's just old. Rebuild it or swap it for a lower mileage engine. Or live with it till you get a newer car. :dunno:

I have one other idea i am bouncing around.
for an engine swap i was tentivly going to swap a b16a. but i just found mounts for an h22a for my 92 integra, i think that might be a better idea.
b16a 160 hp 111 torque 8200 redline price 1060
h22a 200 hp 163 torque 7200 redline price 1500
i have access to wholesale pricing
what do you think.

H22a will cost more in motor mounts, suspension to offest bigger engine, cable>hydro tranny adapter, etc from what i heard, but if you got hookups on parts then go for it. More power to you! 
Pun intended. :thumbup:
