Ok guys its q quick question that i want to get sorted out. I have an 86 Civic carbed with a 4 speed manual lately i want more out of it and the 60hp it comes with ain't cutting it. I know a bit about cars but not enough to do a swap on my own lol or even try. If i take my car sumwhere or anywhere that knows their swaps how much would it end up costing me. i mean the whole 9 yards engine tranny anything required for a good swap i dont need anything big just sumthin fuel injected and with a 5-speed that i can take a mod here and there but nuthing major. Any reply would be helpful very very very curious. Its either this or wait for a raise (hoping soon) and buy a gti or sumthin turbo. Ok thx for any replies.
If theres no speed, then theres no need.

86_civic, if you decide to call it quits, I will give you $50 more than what the dealership will give you. Might I suggest Rusty Wallace VW?

The entire tool selection at Sears or the contents of a Snap-On truck will do you no good if you do not know how to use them.

Hehe im not sure what a dealership will give me for it. The car is in great conditions, and it only has 44k original miles. Just the 60hp are leaving me dry. I want more well from this car if i can get 120hp i would be so happy. It only weighs like 2k lbs so i doesn't need lots of power to move so i say 120 would be great.
