Engines
There are countless engine options but only a handful we recommend.
Our VTEC engine lineup starts with the perfectly balanced and light weight 130-160 HP Honda Civic D16 engine. In our opinion the perfect upgrade to the 60 year old A series drivetrain. We do offer the original 60-80 HP A Series drivetrains upon request.
Honda D16
WE CHOSE THE HONDA D16 FOR SEVERAL REASONS, FIRST OFF ITS ALL ALUMINUM BLOCK AND HEAD SHAVES OFF OVER 20LBS FROM THE ORIGINAL A SERIES DRIVETRAIN. ITS COMPACT FOOTPRINT ALSO ALLOWS FOR OUR A/C UPGRADE TO BE FITTED. ITS LEGENDARY RELIABILITY AND FUEL ECONOMY. THE PERFECT BALANCE OF POWER RELIABILITY AND WEIGHT THAT STAYS COOL IN THE CORNERS AND HOT DAYS. ALL HONDA MOTORS ARE REBUILT WITH NEW COMPONENTS.
TRANSMISSIONS
