    First let me just say that I am not on any type of band-wagon.... I do me and only me. I don't care what the "trend" is. If i like it then I like it.

    I have hearrd of the K and just recently started thinking about the swap. Then decided I would research it a little more last night and ask what others views were. I know both engines (K and H) have their advantages/ disadvantages. I am leaning towards the K because of how different it is and the status you get when people hear you have a K swapped car. Almost everyone has a B16, GSR, LS-V, Ls turbo etc... I want to be somewhat different from others.

    Yes I know it has already been done for years now, but something that is going to have to be faced is that the B series is not in production anymore. The more kids that do the B swap and blow it up are making the B series blocks dissappear faster and faster. K series is what replaced the B series and is still in production by huge numbers. Eventually The B will become even more expensive and the K will become cheaper over time.

    So how many haters are we talkin if I go K series?? lol

    Um......? Sounds like the band-wagon to me brahhhh. You said you you want to build your car for you and you only, and that you want ppl to be all over your knob when you pop the hood of your car..... In the same post.....
