Big Block V8 that's built.

This ? has been discussed in many many threads. Use the search button and search for engine swaps. You will find endless discussion about this very topic.

well you only bolt on choices are a B-series swap. If you want custom look into, H22, K24, or a C35 with a 6 speed. :D

I think a twinturbo V12 from a Mercedes/AMG would be "sick". 1000 newtonmetres of torque, anyone?

Other than that: C32 from the NSX (turboconverted, ofcourse).

Realistically: B20A from JDM 3rd Gen. Accord, or the usual B-series with the PlaceRacing mounts.

EDIT: Why the HELL don't you search before asking this extremely common question? Are you stupid, or just lazy?

dont be so hard on your self. i think the sickest swap would be a d15. ahahhahaha jp. like justin said, anything is possible if the money is endless, k20's, h22's. surely you'll spend alot and alot and alot of money. if youre serious about swapin a better motor, go with b-series. jdm b20 is made for our car and will drop right in, more work in the b16's and 18's range, but i think everyone would agree those would be more practical and a less of a pain in the ass than the k, h, f, or c-series.

You have to specify that were talking about the B20A. If not, he'll end up with a B20B/Z CRV-engine. The engine importers don't know shit about anything other than B16A/B's and B18C's.

The B20A from the CA5 Accord Si and the very same B20A from the CA3 Vigor. The Prelude B20A is worthless, as it won't work. Totally different engine.

yeah, now the D15 sway would be pretty sick as way of just nasty gross kinda sick. lol. sick as in waste of money. i'd say B20 is good to go. considering i think staying 2.0 liters is something i had wanted to do myself. didnt wanna go over, and not really under 1.8. i guess i'm dedicated to a 2.0 engine for the 3gee? i dunno. but yeah, i'd say B20 of any engine model, i'd perfur a non VTEC for somewhat an ease of not dealing with some extra stuff. and definately a turbo is a way to go, kinda leave it sleeper, but with a turbo B20.

BAH! don't worry bout it, if he's serious about the swap, he'll go all out on research, this thread is for his brain storm man.

I actually want to suggest a sick swap that is thinkable. I saw a video of guys over in England putting Cosworth's with Weber Carb's in Export Escorts and the like and hitting 13s with just that mod. Imagine the chip, turbo and headers what they could do. I guess since it is too expensive to get the JDMs there, then that is the next best thing.
