It's not so much a dumb question, but a question that's been asked hundreds of times before, try searching for it, you should be able to find more than a few opinions on either motor choice.

oh yes, I insulted you, therefore I'm a *** and the whole club is a bunch of ****. no sense of humor on some of these guys.

anyways, to insult me is one thing, to insult the club is another.

*edit* hmmm I was gonna ban you, but that's too easy. this club is full of great info... and so is the internet. if you just search, you will find, but we will not spoon-feed it to you.

NO, really T-shirt Ninja, THAT THERE is a dumb question.

clearly the kid never read the rules of the P&S forum, and secondly his question is dumb. B16WHAT and B18WHAT? Clueless kids should / themselves right there. Look at Jacob, he came to these forums when he was 14, and he already knew way more than this guy... just from having an INTEREST in it.

If you use the forums SEARCH option, you will probably find over a hundred threads that answer your question.

11 Second mustang to a 4 banger civic? Did you build it yourself?
