what do i need to build a mini me. i dont want to swap out engines i want to try and build this engine. but i need help on were to get started. i need to know what parts or things i might need. any info is helpful and greatful

 

chirp the 1-2 knows all. find him in members list and pm him.

 

OK here we go a mini me consists of
Bottom End: 88-91 civic or crx
Cylinder head of a 92-98 civic

I personally wouldnt us anything but a si bottom end.
Also The 92-92 head (Z6) will give you lower compression and obviously it will be older. The distributor off the si will not bolt up either!!
The 96-98 Y8 cylinder head gives you higher compression with the si bottom end (Z6 10.4-1) (Y8 11.1-1)

Most people just yank the head and slap the new one on but I dont see how anyone can justify putting a new head on a 100,000 mile bottom end!!!

If you want specifics tell me what you got civic,crx,si,dx????

Also if you searc the web there is at least 3 site with a complete rundown!!
Heres a pick of mine it goes in next weekend!!!

 

Didnt take long huh??? (GREASER)

Just so I dont get flamed there are many other versions but this is the most common!!!
