Are you selling the shell?I have a turbo accord with the same motor.I was gonna look for a lude shell.I want something lighter then my car.If not I can probily find you a motor for a really decent price.There is a 3rd gen accord club and we try to help each other out.And well we all have the same motor.Some of the guy's and my self pulled and rebuilt and put one back in. In 13 hours a couple days ago.It was one of my accords.

se-i
I just got ahold of one of the guy's. And he has a motor. He will swap the motor and install for $800. The good part is the accords have 120hp instead of 110hp. Let me know if you want it done.

Shady_Pro

well id definetly provide a hand if needed with that. an engine swap is something i have yet to do

Shady_Pro
selling the shell is not an option i am still in debt to my bank to make my body look the way it does now with the chrome the car isn't giong ne where just maybe the motor

se-i
It was worth a try.I dont think I could really take the heart out of my car anyway LOL. I sent replys to both of you.I may aswell put this link here for the rest of the 2nd gen lude guys. www.kmodifiedracing.com

All you will beable to get from there is engine parts out of the accord section.But I know sometimes it's hard to find parts for these cars.

2ndgenlude
thats a awesome deal, swap for same price of my clutch and install lol

se-i
This guy just called me and wants to know if you need it still.He is holding the motor till I tell him yes or no.Get back to me and let me know if you need it done by him? Or if you need it done sooner or later?If your in know hurry he will just get you another motor when you are ready

Shady_Pro
well i am gonna rip it apart next weekend and get my head checked out and a couple other things then i'll let u know..ask your buddy if hes ever swapped in a b16a1 because now im startin to get a little more serious about that depending on the results of the damage is with my current engine

se-i
