once again ebay.....i've seen SIR I b16's go for 1200 with free S&H....

 

[Tom]

not bad really, but then i have to get motor mounts, axles, ahift linkage, and small crap, i just still want another dohc zc.

 

[Viperlude69]

yeah since im going with that swap and my car is a std body will i need new hubs for the axels?

 

[Tom]

the only thing i need is the motor, which i can get for 835.00 shipped, plus the zc ecu for a extra 100.00

 

[Viperlude69]

did you read my question? /\

 

[Tom]

did you read my question? /\

sorry about that but yeah ya should and also axles, ecu, tranny, fuel injector resistor box, and some people may even say shift linkage.

 

[Viperlude69]

yeah well i plan on buying off of osaka....which comes with ecu, tranny, and 75 for the shift linkage...

how hard is it to replace the hubs?...and they will have to be from a dx or si right?

what about the axels?....what kind do they have to be?

 

[Tom]

dx or si axles and hubs, but im not sure how they get changed, i'v never done that swap over.

 

[Viperlude69]

hmmmm....im sure once i get them out it should be pretty easy just as long as it doesnt have to be machined out of there...

yeah i dont evne plan on putting tht motor in my car once i get it....im gunna build it like a rock from the bottom up...

 

[Tom]

that's the smart thing to do.

 

[Viperlude69]

yeah but it will take a hella long time.....whats the best thing i should do?...are stroker kits good?......i dont really know much about enternal stuff....

 

[Tom]

there isn't one made for the zc, just the b16 and b18 i believe.

 

[Viperlude69]

yeah.....what kinds of enternal things would be best if i planned on turbo later on?

 

[Tom]

rods, piston, head gasket, valves, valve springs, cam, blockguard, just about everything.

 

[Viperlude69]

you means cams right?.....what about the crank?....and would re-sleving the cylinders do me some good?

 

[Tom]

yeah i meant cams, resleeving imo is not worth the money if ya can just get ablockguard.

 

[Viperlude69]

whats the difference?

 

[Tom]

blockguard is goes just at the top and gets welded in, sleeves, well i'm not sure but they do cost a bit more money i'm sure.

 

[Viperlude69]

Hmmm...what are the best brands for those cams. and the other things you listed?

 

[Tom]

toda makes a set of cams but they don't list them in their web site, you have to call them, for everything elae you can use parts from the 88-95 civic d16 motors, but you have to get the right application.
