Hi i'm new,
I have a 96 Civic EX and I considering an engine swap. I dont have any swaping experiance and I was wondering how much of a hastle it would be (if possible) to fit a K20a (out of a Civic type R) into my car. I read up on the common engine swaps and the "engine swaps 101" section and the k20a isnt mentioned. The higher torque output of the k20a is what I am after.. and the sixth gear is nice too. Can anyone with experiance give me more info on if this swap is worth the hastle or should I settle for one that is more strait forward, like a B18C5 and then tune it, or something else? Any info is greatly appreciated
