D15B (VTEC)

Answer 4

It all depends how much your willing to spend? If u have deep pockets K20 for sure. If your going to turbo it Again K20 or B18. I love the H22 but its way more work to get the full power out of it, cause u cant do high boost till u bore out the block. For the same price of a B18 Gsr u can get K20 if u look around.

Answer 5

any B series motor will drop right in AKA GSR, Type R, or LS motor...even the Civic SI B16A motor will fit...the K20 and H22 motor have good power but are far to heavy for the civic and will hurt the speed over the B series motors.  i have the GSR motor in a 96 civic and have no complaints over the car except on the high way scince i have the P72 transmission it's geared really low for quick acceleration, so once i hit 60 i'm already at 3,000 RPM so if i go faster it hurts my gas mileage...but i will roast many car on the high way...check out Hassport performance i believe they have a guide that shows you which motors are a direct swap with out new motor mounts and shift linkage...also you may want to upgrade your motor mounts to handle the power you'll put into your car....my buddy has snapped one and put the motor up into the hood of the car.  good luck
