You definitely can't go wrong with a M20 though, e block for even more torque and you can push 20+ PSI through it in stock form. I've seen numerous ones with 200 to 300k miles making well over 300 to 400whp...
i only said m20 because im assuming this car is a 325 and came with an m20.


i hate honda engine swaps, and this one especially because youre putting a small, torque-less engine in a heavy ass car. its kinda backwards if you ask me.
