Engine Swap

Hey guys I dont really know a whole lot about cars and swaps for that matter but I have a question. Do you think a B18C Spec R engine would fit into my civic, I have a 2000 Honda Civic and im not sure which type it is. Help would be much appreciated Thank you!

yes it will.

Its a pretty easy swap, with a fair bit of wiring, but other than that its considered a "direct drop in" swap. You just need to use B-series mounts, axles, shifter linkages, ECU and rad hoses, along with the complete engine and tranny.

We do B-series swaps in 1996-2000 civics (all models) at the shop on a monthly basis and can have it done in 1-2 days usually.

Yup, fairly easy swap.

Since its safe to say you won't be doing that yourself, drop it off at hiVelocity, trustworthy shop.

K20's can also be done. It is significantly pricier because of parts you need to buy.
If you can afford a K-swap, do it up. You will love it.
