JackdUp's 1992 Honda Civic CX

Update: installed built motor, N/A…9.0:1 and it’s damn near exactly like driving a B18B1 swapped hatch up to 5000 RPM. The tune is not 100% by any means, but it was enough to go get gas. With Blox B cams set to 0/0 degrees, hitting VTEC it’s like waaaa/wAAAAA/stumble…lol, not even close to what was before…certainly drivable tho. Less than 100 miles on it…still breaking it in N/A. Joe, may want to see you soon for a street tune on this set up to avoid hurting it.

H/D, thank you for the build. That thing fired right up and sounded perfect. Valve lash is set spot on, valves are quiet as can be.

Old B18C1 is out. Saw an assload of Nitrous and was starting to burn a ton of oil. I’m probably going to rebuild that swap to > 250 HP N/A as a backup motor, just in case.

Same transmission with ACT 6 puck and some Jesus juice/synchro-mesh for now. Backup tranny input shaft bearing is toast. Needs a rebuild for sure. Still looking for someone that knows these trans to rebuild it.

One CEL, code 1…no biggie, probably a toasted O2 from sitting so long.

More to come later this year. That’s all for now. Thanks to Jeff at 1st-Try for all the help getting this thing together even if I’m a slacker…

Red civic off the lift, silver vette on. :bowdown:

I think that makes us like brothers in arms or some shit…
