Up for sale is the motor i was going to use in my hatch. Due to title issues the hatch is gone, and i have no use for the motor anymore.

THE MOTOR:  
1997 d16y8  
srp pistons  
ARP head studs  
bored .050 over  
brand new timing belt/waterpump, etc  
stock d16y8 transmission with ACT clutch

Garret T3 super 60 turbo (oil and coolant cooled)  
Turbosmart 35 mm external wastegate  
custom 3" downpipe  
flat black intercooler piping  
HUGEE spearco front mount  
keikhin(not sure on spelling) 450cc injectors (evo 560cc’s available)  
bosch blow off valve  
all oil lines, etc

I have receipts for just the build on the motor alone of over $1000

Willing to let everything listed here go for 3000 b/o

i got the motor out of a wrecked civic. Included with the car was recipts for the build. No where on the receipts did it mention the rods, so i have to assume they are stock.

Not trying to part out the turbo kit yet

I’ll sell u all the turbo stuff for 1500, and you can keep what u want, and sell the rest. Lemme know if that sounds appealing

i bet the rods are aftermarket…im pretty sure you cant use forged pistons with stock rods on the d series. but if they are stock the build is worthless, the rods are the weakest points.
