If your going N/A I would go LS. B16s are fun N/A also. If your going to do a swap I would definitely go DOHC just more potential in the future. If you go SOHC I would plan on boost. IMO

Dohc Zc Ftw!

:nod: Very straightforward swap, cheap, power increase, loves boost. Swapping the ZC DOHC into a CRX DX was the very first major thing I ever did car related. It was a great learning experience, didn't break the bank, and was very straight forward with not needing too many extra parts.

DOHC ZC is probably the easiest. Cost effective too.

or A6/Z6 mini me. :what: little more involved in the wiring. power is similar.

ZC will be the easiest and cheapest but you wont get good power. ls you will have to get mounts axles shift linkage and some other small things. that in my opinion is a better a better swap, a DOHC vtec will be the best and easiest.

all you need is a b20, you'll have maddddd torque and the price for that JDM engine is very very cheap from others...also If you do have money in the future you could always put on a vtec head.=)
