so what you think? all of which i believe will fit in a crx, im not entirely sure about the h22 though

motor will be built completely, able to run to 10k rpm, head and block.

either a type r tranny or a gsr.... im leaning towards the R for the shorter gears.

what are your opinions?

H22 for the torque

I would go with just with a b16 swap (it would be alot greater than the sohc zc you had in the other car). If you want to upgrade it later buy a b20 or ls and prep that for a ls/vtec or b20/vtec. That way you wont have to piece parts together, already have a short geared tranny, and a vtec head for the conversion.

yea, i agree with dare, unless you're made of money.

get an LS, and then when u get sum money build it up and slap a b16 head on it if you want.

^ ls/vtec wouldnt be bad...

im just getting peoples opinions on what they have done or would do and why. i havent set my mind on any particular motor.... when i met darryl at the varsity we were discussing a b20/vtec. i still think i may go that path but not sure. ill make more serious decisions when the $$$ starts being built up

now for another question? i know that you cant build a chevy v8 with 12.1+ compression without using race gas.

can you build a honda with over 12:1 compression and just run premium gas? or would it run but shitty

gsr. h22 would be nice, but doesnt fit in as easily as b's.

Straight up H22, stock or with bolt-ons will rape all other B-Series motors.
