Hey guys. I got a question for yall. Im saving up to get my B16A2 Engine. Now I work from 3pm-11pm monday through friday. I am gonna be hopefully working on a contract job from 7am-2pm Monday through Friday to help with the saving. Do anybody have any other good ideas on how to make some cash legally and without having to work at a strip club for ladies (something bout a bunch of guys around me half naked isnt my ideal place to work). I mean I still wanna have a life. Just any ideas or stories that you might have that i can use to help me get this money so i can get this engine A.S.A.P. At the pace im heading in now. It seems like i'll have the engine some time around Christmas. But i want it earlier then that. Due to the reason that i wanna move out of my parents house and i cant save for the new engine and pay for an apt.

 

Become a man whore.

 

You know that thought has crossed my mind. But there's too many Transformers out there that are more then meets the eye. Dang Decepticons!!

 

Mo money, mo problems.

 

Get a b20 instead. It'll be faster and you'll save money.

 

Really i might look into that. I mean i got a 92 Civic LX. The current engine has 130k+ Miles on it and before i move out i wanna make sure my car is going to reliable and not crap out on me once i move out. But i'll look into the B20. Would the B20 be a direct swap. Also my friend was telling me once i get a new engine and tranny that once i put it in. Im gonna have to tune it and all that stuff to make sure it runs right. Isnt the mechanic suppose to do that when they put it in. I mean that is why im paying 6-700 for them to put it in.

 

You won't have to tune anything if you are using the correct ECU. THe installation of a B20 is the same as a B16, but without wiring for VTEC. However, you'll need to find a Bseries hydraulic tranny to go with it. The b20 comes from the Honda CRV, and thus doesn't come with a manual tranny.

 

Ok dont say :ghey: or :eh: but im sticking with an auto transmission. I know that goes against all rules and standards that alot of people hold but thats what im doing and im sticking to it. I would love to have a stick but im not looking to get one right now. But would i still have to look for a different tranny if i went with a AT rather then a MT. Im prolly gonna order from A1Jdmengines.com. Tom has been rather helpful with some people i use to know so i though id might as well go there. So basically what am i gonna necessarily need when i get this so i can pass this info on to my mechanic.

 

I also see that the ZC DOHC is rather cheap as well. Would that be a good swap?
