A healthy single cam runs about the same price as a k24a2 its just the ecu being pricier on k series but i mean virgin obd1 ecus are going for around 250 now and once u get hondata installed ur in like 800 into a early 90s ecu
Back in the 90s i road to school in a 79 civic with a D1.6 swap and the stock 4 speed transmission. That car was so fun an kinda fast for the time. Fun times.
Many moons ago I owned a 1976 Civic. I loved that car and wish so badly that I hadn’t sold it. I always wanted to do an engine swap in it, but never had the funds, so I’m looking forward to seeing this one. I’m very glad you finally chose the J series in the end. Can’t wait for the next video……in 2024! 😉
i think any more than an R18-20 would tear that poor thing in two. Single Jingle is the only swap i've seen IRL in a first gen, same person later attempted and failed with a B. That D16 was built with ITB's 4 -1 header tho, a legend. This was 20 years ago.
Brian, my very first car was a red 1983 Civic just like this one. I want to see the K series swapped in. With all the bolt ons over 200 naturally aspirated horse power in that super light car would be crazy.
Any K-Swap but I'm sure you'll be able to find several Acura RSX's with good powertrain / perfect for swap as they usually have a lot of rust issues but are otherwise extremely reliable!
You guys do great work. I've a 97 Accord with a F22B2; any suggestions to get a little more power out of it? I did the cold air intake, headers, cat delete and deleted the balance shaft belt. Thank you.
B series throttle body with port match intake manifold and a catback exhaust would add more power also a vtec head swap would be up your alley but if you wanna do an engine swap I'd go h22a like im doin in my 96 accord that came with f22b2
J series with a s2000 trans.. the way the hood opens it would just be so unexpected lol and how cool would a rear mounted rad be ! Ambitious but epic lol
Are EV conversions still out of the question? The Teslonda guy could use some competition. He used a Tesla motor in his but a Ford Mach-E motor would be more compact and could fit in something like this. Plus it can potentially sequentially add power with added motor modules. Fruit for thought!
I would do the f23a1 engine. That's just my preference I love the k series transmission support bearing and bseries 900hp with dog box . But for 200 bucks running am former smog emissions technician so I think about what's can I really get bard. I would love love a f23a automatic in ef hatch back. 150hp 150 torque with power steering and ac pump and condenser. No matter what it's just so basic and perfect 4300 weight accord into a 2300weight hatch. I can only imagine what's 13in lenko wheels with 23.5 racemaster slick would do stock ECU emissions harness virgin from factory. Would be like on some spec Miata wheels on Goodyear rs-a eagles. It really basic concept not $10000 swap
U should take the f22 in my s2000 freshen it up and swap it into the retro honda. Them well just find a kseries for the s2000 later you can even create some content in the process??? I live in casa grande and work in phoenix. Do you know anyone interested in an 06 sezuka bkue metallic AP2 S2000 with the factory optional side skirt mud flaps...

L15B7 would be the best marriage of New Civic for this Old Civic.
Was about to say the same
Agreed
oh man that mugen motor was so cool. what a relic. got my hopes up that would be in there!
D16 SOHC Vtec! Keeping the budget low is fun to watch !

Bro i would love if they did the SOHV vtec
Yes! You should finish it ASAP! Excited to see more.
Zc would be cool. But prob a b series would be perfect.
The zc I had in my crx reved to the moon. That motor made it a fun car for sure
@410kane I would love to see someone make some decent power on one. Especially since it's an older Honda. The thing will hate tq.
Orange honda cvcc was my first car.
Kswap it all....
I had a 1980 brown with a Hondamatic. I called it the Turd . I had a 82,83
Back in the 90s i road to school in a 79 civic with a D1.6 swap and the stock 4 speed transmission. That car was so fun an kinda fast for the time. Fun times.
Been waiting on this build since the first time around.
This is wild!!! Cool build dudes!
D16a1 classic and the thing to swap back in the day. I might be slightly biased though
What a nostalgic car... my father bought one when i was 7 years old.. someday.. i will build this... making a sleeper
V6 in the back. There’s a guy in Modesto, California that does it with minis..old ones 1983 and older.
people hate on the kswap but its just so good and easy and there is so much aftermarket support
This thing brings back some good memories! Wish i could work on it again with you guys!

Thanks for the upload
I’m currently trying to stuff a 24a2 in a 81 prelude so I’m right there with ya lol
Cool stuff Brian and team . Should of Done it in a 87 Ed now ya talkn .
Love it.....any engine u choose it will be a fun build to watch, thanks for the content
Love your work
Brian, my very first car was a red 1983 Civic just like this one. I want to see the K series swapped in. With all the bolt ons over 200 naturally aspirated horse power in that super light car would be crazy.
First car was a blue '76 CVCC wagon. Would love to have swapped wagon. Seen a few clean ones out here on maketplace.
a D16 stroker would go bonkers in this chassis
Couldn't agree more
d15b8 and matching trans. modern ecu. 75 mpg
Hands down best 1.5 they ever built!
A 1st gen insight swap would fit very nicely in there.
Carbureted de-stroked D15B that revs to 12K on 13:1 compression E85
Bonus points for adapting a 6 speed to it
Do the zc, it’s the closest to being a period correct swap, and it’s a good opportunity to renew interest in retro builds.
The 87 integra engine would be my pick. The D series. Build it good. Would be cool.
Yes please finish this project 🙏.
Dohc d16 would be crazy cool in this chassis!
D16a8 or ew4! Greatest 2 engines honda ever built! Olds kool!!!
6:10 I actually have the same exact Snap-On Racebox that red toolbox in the back left in the video lol. I need matching lower cabinet like you have.
It'd be cool to see it finished this year. So, yes, please, asap. How's the mini TL coming along?
Any K-Swap but I'm sure you'll be able to find several Acura RSX's with good powertrain / perfect for swap as they usually have a lot of rust issues but are otherwise extremely reliable!
Damn!! Dats a pretty bad gash on ur hand cuddy!!
R18 swap
B18b1 with a gsr 5 speed manual /p75ecu obd1 distributor best fun lil swap
An L15 would absolutely slap in this with a 10speed
This little jem would be great at AWD f20c s2k swap 👌💯
I know it likely wouldn't be doable in this chassis, but I really want to see the K20C4 and 10 speed swapped into an older gen Honda.
Hell yeah finish it soon
Was wondering what was going on with this car. Finish it!
Wheres the CB7 love at? Come on guys! Lol
I would love to see it D or B swap
You guys do great work. I've a 97 Accord with a F22B2; any suggestions to get a little more power out of it? I did the cold air intake, headers, cat delete and deleted the balance shaft belt. Thank you.

Turbo it
D16 sohc for life
J series with a s2000 trans.. the way the hood opens it would just be so unexpected lol and how cool would a rear mounted rad be ! Ambitious but epic lol
Honestly h swap is underated they are incredible engines. But b and k probably have both been done probably more b then ks but yeah.
Id love to see a d16 vtec
Whats the story of that 3rd gen in the intro, i am interested
A J series in there would be nuts. Wonder how hard it'll be to do a rear wheel drive K?
Throw the D Series in there. That way you don’t have to hack up the original frame rails.
Hey Brian a J series is insane but the QUE series would be QUErazy!!! ROFL LMAO
damn this thing on build B swap or K swap with a Aggressive Ae86 Watanabe black wheels be nice..
Are EV conversions still out of the question? The Teslonda guy could use some competition. He used a Tesla motor in his but a Ford Mach-E motor would be more compact and could fit in something like this. Plus it can potentially sequentially add power with added motor modules. Fruit for thought!
Finish it!!!!! 2025. I'm impatient .
Yes please finish
H-Series
H22 H2B or a high reving F20B F2B
K20Z3 😊
Or k24z7 would be super fun🤘🏽🤘🏽
Have fun changing head gaskets on that 1.5 ltr.
Ive come across the craziest outside the box mods.
Its absolutely insane. I sent an email but not sure if you guys really care.
l15 would be great for a car that size. and would keep it a 1500! lol well 1497 or w/e but still
Totally, as long as you get enough tire under there.
The stock engine with itb's would of been cool.
I just my running 1980 civic hatch
A dual carb d16sohc would be cool since it would eliminate the wiring
Yeah I like that option. I have a Civic 1200 I may do that to.
Zc would be cool. Ive never seen anyone tune one
5 cylinder would be cool I'd have to say. But maybe a little tight
Go all out mid engine rear drive jswap
I approve this message im aquiring the parts to do this to my hatch the only thing i cant find are transmition shift cables for a mid engine j swap
@jedbidia1988 custom, I saw this done in a mini Cooper on another channel he had to make them longer and route through the body.
@@matthewpere1975 do u remeber channel name appreciate the info i literally have everything to get it started in a cpl weeks minus the cables

Acura Vigor 5 cylinder
Complete the car
L15a? Or just too tall with the intake manifold?
Please go zc with itb. Too many k series. Gets boring.
Interested in an S2000 sir for content 😊
A ZC is the way to go. Or d16a6.
I would do the f23a1 engine. That's just my preference I love the k series transmission support bearing and bseries 900hp with dog box .

Wait are these civic lighter then the crx? Bc a J in one would literally make the car fly
Make the background music quieter
I got an S2000 in the garage itching for someone to tinker under her bonnet she has the oem exhaust 😅
D16 no more k series 😊😊
What about a D16Y8 or D16Z6?
K24 rear wheel drive, please.
I vote for a ZC DOHC............. eBay TURBO!!
