that would be a good engine, but that would be a horrible price. check out integra forums and you can probably pick one up for half that price or less with wiring harness and all to boot.

The one in the car is a B18C1 GSR engine. Usually goes for about $3000 for full swap. The first, is a B18C Type R engine, usually go for $4200, with full swap.

Shipping would kill you on that engine if you had to ship it across the country. Just find someone local or a local importer to get an engine from.

I am not geting one off E-bay so I would not have to deal with shiping.
The reson I want to swap is that the newer Engines have more parts for them more parts = more power.
And I would like to race in a few years when the car is done
So I gusse the ? is wich Engine can be bult to have the most HP??

DOHC ZC = JDM 1.6l DOHC non-VTEC. 130 PS. I had it in my CRX.

There are SOHC, and SOHC VTEC ZC's, with varying years, and power. DOHC ZC is the most common, so I'm assuming it's that one without looking at the page.

yeah with that much you can get like 3 3geez......i would take reliability over speed for now...anyways just get a regular b18...they sell them for like a grand from like rear ended cars.
