or there is alway a dohc zc swap there fun in a crx and very cheap
EDIT: I was getting it confused with the DPFI crap lol. I forgot that my friend's was DPFI and his previous hatch wasn't. (he had a b16 in that one, it was an ED Si)

i think the LS is a better swap for an EF anyways...b16 makes what...130hp before VTEC....I'd rather have the torque to get that light ass chassis movin..

neither of the B series have any torque lets be a lil realistic lol. The best In my opinion would be the b16 or the LS/VTEC (LS bottom end with Type R or GSR top end)
