Damn, thats pretty badass. First interesting swap since the k-series. This could probably be done on a budget with a swap out of an accord.

Heres a working hasport link:

That's pretty cool. I don't know if I'd want that swap for anything but a drag car, that's a lot of weight out front. That would make a H swap seem like the king of oversteer.

It would make a cool daily, I wonder if any reasonable hoods fit over the engine.

Probably most will Fit. I dont see hasport making them for a 6 gen civic and requiring the hood to be cut.

With mounts of that type, I'm sure they drop it down as far as it will reasonably go. I don't think deck height would really be an issue with those engines either, because the plenum isn't very large and the cylinder banks are obviously canted. I bet there isn't a lot of room left in that engine bay in any direction though.

Why 92-95 though? You'd think they'd go for the later gen stuff.
