ATTENTION HONDA EXPERTS! Can I swap a b20 engine w/ manual transmission into a auto crv?
A friend of mine has a AWD crv with a automatic and the engine blew up.
He is selling it for 500 and I want to know what is the best possible engine swap for it?
I'm liking the b20 engine but not sure if it will fit
Not only that but I want to make it into a manual! Is that possible? I know it would need like a hole in the dash for the shifter knob but I'm not sure. And the transmission also has to work for the AWD.
So I'm relying on you Honda mechanics out there to help me out?! And if you had any figures on how much the parts would cost I could appreciate it! Labor is on me!
P.S. I need the best combination of cheap and power! Looking to spend about 1500 on parts
You're better off buying the CRV and changing the engine. Don't know if the B20 will fit or not since you don't mention years. Making it a manual you will need to do a lot of mods. You're better off just changing the engine and forget doing all the other work also will be cheaper in the long run
- What's the best engine (to add horse power and torque) that i can swap into my 1999 Honda Prelude? Currently i have an H22A but i heard that the k series or even the f series are better? Is this true or should i just stick with my H22A?
- I seized my 1999 Miata 1.8 engine. Can I swap in a b20? So I killed my engine. My question is can I swap in a b20 Honda engine. Those Miata engines are a bit pricey. A b20 is like $800 which is perfect. And if they can be swapped in what all will I need for it to be at Thank you
- Help on automatic transmission, tips and tricks from any car experts? Hello I'm new to driving and was hoping if someone could give me insight. My honda is automatic and has 3 gears. Drive, second, and low. I know low is the highest gear because it increases rpm much faster than drive. My question is, when am I supposed to use something other than drive? Any tricks or hints? When I merge onto the freeway, do I go in second gear, accelerate the. Drop down to drive? Please any tricks will be greatly appreciated
- Can a 16.L engine fit into a 1998 Honda Civic LX? (before doing engine swap)? I had an blown motor on my 1998 Honda Civic LX, I have new spark plugs, distributor cap and some other items, however, since the old spark plugs happened to be melted as well, I have no option other to do a engine swap. I've been doing some research, and it seems like I only have the 1.6L engine as a option. By the way, the blown motor is a D16Y8, and is automatic.
