i ws surfing threw Ebay when i came accross a 1983 Civic with a 3G accord motor. Apparent with all the mods done to it, it can dust a B18 or B16 with no sweat, so they say. If you wanna see the car for your self then go to e-bay & type in 1983 Honda Civic
It was done by KMS. in Covington, Ga

Why do you call your accord a GSR?

Well see i got the car from my sister husband & he told me that he was going to put a GSR motor in it before he gave it to me, but when i got it was GSR motorless. Anyway, before i got the car i made the name & that is why, When I move back to Fla im getting a GSR motor, but as of right now im stuck with my stock motor

KMS sells complete race engines... since the owner worked on an A20 motor... I'm sure an a20 motor could be purchased fully prepared... and it's an easy swap.

My question is this: Since he is a genius at squeezing 320 HP out of the A20 engine, why not open up a shop to mod A20's that are still in 3G Accords and 2G Ludes? If he generated enough business, he wouldn't have to sell his Civic. How many of you would like to have your engines modded like that? It is also no stretch to understand how his Civic can blow the doors off the newer models. The 1 and 2G Civics were very lightweight, plus he has stripped everything out of it except for the bare essentials.

He's selling the car to spend more time with the newborn... he says he won't have as much time to race it.

320 out of a N/A a20. Even with some flat slide mikunis and 13:1 compression he's not coming close to that. Thats got to be a typeo. I'd guess its closer to 200.

Yeah even 100hp per liter isn't easy to get, so 320hp all motor, I don't believe that.

check it out... confirm his 320hp see what other engine mods he's done to boost the a20's performance!

I don't see that his spec's add up to 320hp. the only thing that would confirm that to me would be to pay a scca race steward to check the motor and for that tech to drive it onto a dyno and test it for me. 160hp per liter, I don't believe it.
