Hey guys I need some opinions on this.

I found this on ebay today:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...keTra ck=true

And it seems like a decent deal so im very interested, and its actually a usdm b16a2, which is what im looking for. Im curious if what it lists for whats included is all that I will need or what else I need to pick up for the swap? Any feedback is appreciated.

you need some gloves man cause that shit is hott yo.

well you got 2 days to figure it out, the actuion looks clean (as well as the motor) so i'd say email the seller just to let him know you're interested and try to get as much information as you possibly can. And i'm sure some other guys on the board can help you with some swap info. Otherwise check honda-tech.com or hondaswap.com. good luck!

Yeah, I don't want to rain on your parade, but unless you have a reason to buy this motor, like you have a 'modern day classic' '99-'00 Si, that you want to keep all original, and you want a spare motor to play with, blah, blah, blah... I would forget it. There are a LOT better 'swap' motors out there...

I dont understand why it already has a block guard tho..... That is really not needed for a stock motor..... but oh well....

For a B16a, that is a great price. I feel the same... I like B18C better...
