so i have a da integra and i have about five hundred dollars.... i am wanting to buy a new motor or rebuild the one i have.

i was wondering if i buy a b20 what else do i need to drop it in.

also i would really like to just get another LS but i have been told that you cant put a jspec LS into a 90 integra unless its the obd1 LS.

basically im lookin for any info or input on what motor is best to get for around 5 to 600 dollars that is a direct drop in. or very little work.

either one will drop right in. if you use the b20, just swap over the intake manifold and ride out...

same for any other ls u get. just swap your current sensors onto the new longblock.

an obdo ls will be a direct swap cuz the car is obdo...i think 91 teggys came obd1 anything lower is obdo

actually 94 teggy is when they went obd-1 and the motor got a 10hp increase. my brother is putting a us specb18b1(from a 94) in his DA, he had a valve job done, head milled, it should run pretty good. i may be able to get you a machined LS head for like $200 and if the valves were done right it would be good. also a b20 with the right tranny is good, i have a buddy with a DA and he had a b20 with an LS tranny and alot of headwork and he ran with me before i got my cams until my tranny took over, i was impressed myself.
