Easy engine swap suggestions for a 1st Gen?

[Loffs919]

OK...i just got a first gen teggy.....ya its a classic.......im lookin at swaping the engine for something with a little more than the existing 113hp. Im not really sure what will fit EASILY..... i was thinking possibly an b16a from a JDM crx or a b18 from any newer model teggy.....and yes i have searched but no luck .......

please no dumbass responses ....ive heard the saying "you can do anything with enough money" thats not what im lookin for.....im trying to find the easiest swap for my 1g........ Thanks

You can fit any of the B and H series engines into the engine bay for a swap.

also ...can i buy a longblock and use the existing tranny???

for the b-series, you can put any b-series trans on any b-series block, long or short

 

[Walshie]

but remember you should have a d16 DOHC in there i think.. so a Bseries block isnt going to work with the tranny but a full 90-91 swap isnt all that much, do some measurments (spelled wronge lol) eye everything up with the 90-93 tegs and youirs take pics! so what you can to figure out what mount your gonna have to move....ect..im sure its not gonna be a direct drop in

It's very difficult to get an H series into a G1 Teg, Kutchaboy. That's a ridiculous suggestion.

Any B series will fit into a G1 with the help of an aftermarket engine mount kit. And you'll need to put a B series tranny in along with it, of course, like Walshie said. Not a highly difficult swap.
What year is the Integra?
86+87 = D16A1 113HP/99TQ
88+89 = D16A3 118HP/103TQ

B16 is probably your best choice.

 

[teggyls]

id say a b16 in there would do the job i believe there is a sponser on here selling it for 1400 and you can pick up the mounts for a few hundred

 

[g3teg97]

You'll also need the Hasport motor mounts. But you'll have to get the entire engine swap tranny, ecu, etc because it's all different.

 

[Loffs919]

Thanks for all your help guys........

id say make it a sleeper with a b18c5 motor .

I would rather see the B16 with ITBs over the ITR swap.

^^^^^^ I'm with you. ^^^^^^^

 

[fnb2121]

any B series motor fits i would go with a b16a or b18c.... and it will be much faster and no one will expect that integra to be coming

 

[g3teg97]

To me, it wouldn't matter what engine goes in it. If I had a 88 for a project car I'd be happy with my B18B1 engine in. I've seen only one B18C5 in a G1, though.
