A B-16 is a great motor but unrealistic for some of us! A B-16 will not bolt into my CRX, but a ZC will. So let's break things down...


B-16 A1 $1200

B16 doesn't drop right in so install is more, you gotta run wires for the ecu... so say $800
but it also needs mount's $600
Itergra axle's $160 / side
you need shift linkage's to mod $100
you want an intake so say $350
and there's prob. so more mis. that I'm forgetting.


ZC $350
-savings of $850

install is a drop in, Dented did it on his driveway. But if you wanna pay no more than $300
-savings of $500
don't need mount's $0
-savings of $600
don't need axle's $0
-savings of $320
use my D-series intake $0
-saving's of $350

Total spent-----------$650
Total saved-----------$2600

With that $2600 you can take you motor and rebuild it a Leitner to be a B-16 killer.

Port and Polish $1200
New piston's $600
Cam's $600

Been at the greatest engine shop for some time, we've looked it over and over.

There are thing's that can kill B16's, even D-series motor's.

ok, why do you feel you have to prove yourself to ppl on the board? you think cuz you make decent money for a government office taht it makes you better than a person working their *** off in a factory? if you are getting so bent out of shape because ppl don't agree with you, you might want to jsut drop it, pick up your pride and go somewhere else

I'm not trying to prove myself...I'm defending myself when people say **** like I scrape **** off the floor in my slum. So please, go talk to someone else.

oh no some ppl on an internet fourm think im a bum. suck it up, if you are educated and hold a decent job, then you probably wouldn't care what ppl say. me, i just like to bother ppl that slam my friends. so thats where i stand.

GROW UP, not everyone in life will like you

hahaha I took a quick nap and 3 pages of replies

Wow I must say this topic wen't quite off topic and a for riceburners little chart there, makes a lot of sence. Anyhow im not going to take this crackheads side on the b16 or the other side but for under $1000 a zc motor is definitly worth it, the motor hasn't given me any problem in my 2 years of owning it, I take care of it and she treats me right and you can't go wrong with the swap and a little learning experience if you decide to do it on your own. But I also love the b16 in an ef, the car definitly boogies

BTW I never heard of that 88-89 as oppsed to 90-91 thing where the newer ones run better, not sure about that but ifit's true that's good b/c I have a 90

Stop the fighting people, especially the pimp ****

we are for the most part ...

but when some newbie comes on here - and acts like he runs the place, makes threats towards members, etc etc... the real members of the club are gonna put him in his place.

example above

Problems? One more thing: I didn't say I lived in Jamestown. Maybe I just hang out there cuz I knew alot of those guys from way back when? And I don't give a **** who you are...none of you would drive through Jamestown at night, especially if you're white.

WOW I cant beleive I compleatly missed this thread...LOL...Well lets see here I work for Enviroment Canada, Aviation Weather and Synoptic Code Reporting Station Operator, so maybe you have bent over to fix my computer before?..lol..Im interested to know your name?? Give me your Name so I can verify your status with Enviroment Canada, A technical service specialist is coming in on tues to do some work, he will recognise your name if you speak truthfully...your probably just some co-op student that knows the figures of what your bosses are making..

And Just for the Record My other vehicle is a 2001 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited. And I love my Civic, Its fun to build and mess around with, its a hobby; Like I could own a BMW or something but then what are you gonna do with it other than drive it? its already performance built that's no fun...I take pride in my civic cuz I make it perform well with my own 2 hands. How can you be proud of something thats been done for you?? My point here is that just because we own Civics doesnt mean we are poor
