Ok here's the deal i had a 95 honda ex with a b16 engine, hit a deer with it and totaled it. I've been searching for a honda for about 3 weeks now and i've ran across a 1996 civic hatchback with a ls/vtec in it. I know it has Type R internals and a GSR tranny, he never said what head was on the car, im gonna speak with him hopefully 2morow so i'll post it if i find out. i'm looking for a decently fast car that i can rely on, how reliable are these engines especially one setup like this?

the guy said its a B16A head with GSR cams so all togethor i would be buying a B20 block with a B16A Head with GSR cams, GSR tranny, and Type R internals, what do you guys think of this setup? what do you think im looking at HP wise and 1/4 mile wise, sitting in a 96 civic hatchback.

i tell you what, if its a b20 block that block has no type r internals, the b16a head is known as crap and cams are gsr so therefore there is nothing tye r about that car and i not really sure about the horse power you will be getting all and all that car is not that fast probably thats why he's selling it.
