my b18

[shifty]

look i keep getting told that it is imposable to put an b18 in my car and i realy need to know if it is or not. i can make the mounts at work but i just don't know somebody please send help soon. thanks

Im pretty sure its possible but i think its much easier to drop in H22's and F22B in these cars cause you dont have to Fab up new motor mounts

[OnE eYe GuY]

nothings impossible. but the question is why? b18 as in ls, gsr or r? imo they just dont have enough torque to get the accord rolling.

as far as I know, other than the mount issues, the civic/integra uses a cable operated clutch system, unlike our hydraulicly operated one. thats another obstacle you would face. I could be wrong though.

as long as the motor physically fits, its possible... if you want to deal with getting the mounts to fit and deal with getting axles that fit and every other difference issue so you can get a B18 in your car, go for it... but the things going to feel like shit taking off the line (car is too heavy for the torque the b18 puts out) and it will be slower than the H22, but still cost quite a bit more...

if u already have a B18, might as well sell it and buy an h22 and keep the difference. remember that h22s are direct bolt ins...

Yeah, they are cute torqueless things aren't they? Just sell to someone wannabe f&f guy for like $4000 and use that to buy a K.

It Is Posible But It Wont Be Fast Like Those Tegs And Civics,eg,ef,etc,etc Its Better Going With A H22,h23 That Has More Tourque If You Go With The B18 You Wont Get Much Power Out Of It But If You Do Get It In There You Will Be The First Cb7 I Know That Has A B18 In It

please dont capitalize every letter...thats even worse than THIS or ThIs..

Why would you bother with such a small engine in a 2900 lb car?

[sj960]

Well, the LS puts out the same torque as the f-series, so I don't think it would suffer so bad, but i mean, youll still be as slow as it was before the swap.. its useless and a pain in the ass...
P.S. Did anyone else know that the accord came with a 1.8L in japan? It was the f18, not sure of the letter after that...

tegras had 142ft lbs?

edit-
i just did a quick search and i see some integra (type r maybe?) had 130 ft lbs. the other ones were all lesss ..........

Only the third gen came in 1.8 if i remember. The smallest motor that i have seen in our cars is a 2.0.

yep, f18, i believe f18a... it was carbed IIRC... there was also the f20 of course
