hey everybody i have an 88 accord lxi and i was wondering how hard it would be to swap my engine and drop a b16a1 in. a guy from cincystreetscene.com said that some of you guys might be able to help me. i just need to know what i have to get and what i have to do.
thanks
stephen
do the search man, we have tons of info in this board about b16 swaps.
i was also wondering if i had to change my transmission if i do get this engine?
Read what shepard79 said? There are hundreds of threads with the info. you need. I know I've searched. I plan on doing the swap next year.
Yes you will have to get the tranny with the new engine. Placeracing makes the swap/mount/driveshaft/shifter kit for the swap. That alone is nearly a grand.Quote:

It's over a grand. If you buy it from OSS, it's $1315 and some change.

Are you serious Steve?? :)
Hell yeah man. Not sure what I want though. Turbo B16 or LS/VTEC. I can turbo the B16 for about the same price as what you told me you paid for the LS/VTEC.
