i think this would go here with it being about swapping a motor into my car??? if not i apologize and please move to correct forum.
what would be a better motor to use? a guy at work has a 90 civic hb with a motor out of a 95 integra(not real sure on year, just know it is an integra) for around $6-700 for the running car...or i saw a complete pullout from a 98 civic ex D16Y8 vtec motor with 91 civic tranny that was in a 91 civic hb for around $400, but i would have to drive a couple hours to pick it up so there would not be a real big difference in cost.
i do not know alot about the differences in any of the motors honda makes...i just know i have a 91 crx si with a rod knocking and it is my daily driver...i work on domestic cars all the time and have changed a couple transmissions on hondas so i can do the work.
so what is the mpg difference? power difference? basically i would like to know the pro's and con's of each one...both are around same price and are drop in kits pretty much
thanks for any and all help
