Well on sunday I was flippin through the channels and I came across the TNN PowerBlock (group of car related shows), it was during a commercial for horsepower tv episode that was to be on later that day.
I was really surprised to see that their topic was on their old project Civic...b18c1 swap...

I TAPED IT!
It was very basic but it was cool to see it done anyways

If you missed it and wanted to see it, go to www.horsepowertv.com and look at their schedule to see when it is on next. All the shows repeat so it should be on in a month and a 1/2 or so...like i said it was very basic but still cool to see

**edit** well, I went on the site myself for you all...you lucky people

... its on May 3rd (saturday) and the 4th sunday if you are interested

i saw it too, kinda basic and quick, but its only 1/2 hour show, but it was good to see the engine swap done instead of just reading do this, the do that....

yea i saw that episode too... it was cool how they swapped out the stock camshafts with an aftermarket one... but i thought they would have gotten an adjustable cam gears...

I was surprised. I thought they were only gonna bolt stuff onto the stock engine of their "project honda". Its actually turned out really nice. I missed the swap though! grr...

That street fighter civic they did was dumb they slaped on some stickers, fart pipe, intake , ZEX and big wing. ANd then the still the thing only put 150-160 to the ground... What hurt the most I saw that the zex only added 30 FRWP... that sucks

They should be doing gsr engine swaps on they show instead of showing you stupid ricer mods

^well they corrected the situation anyways and it put down 170 on the dyno w/o the n2o...i hear that they are planning a sc install on it next season (not turbo because they already spend the money on the new header and special zex intake)
