Yes a carbed sohc A series engine. The kind i want to drop into the sedan...or another civic.

[blitz_crx]

so do they have any use for any of you guys? can they be converted to a dseries manifold, or has this ever been done?? or should i let them rot away on a shelf?

Can you get us pics?
I think we all want to see what they look like before deciding if we want to buy them.
It's hard to tell without knowing what they are & what shape they're in.

hmm is there a chance that they might look like this?






this ir errantly picked up and decided not to use after some research, that and choosing to go to FI

Is that adapted to fit on an EW? If so could you re duplicate the piece?
I have a set and am trying to get a manifold made for them.

[Street Luge]

unfortunatly they will not fit as they are , i will get a pic later of how badlt they dont match up, an adapter plate would be needed and ad a good 1/2' to 1'' thickness as well, since i wasnt going to go through with that i was just going to toss it. I believe it is from an accord or a prelude

Oh, I am well aware of how they dont fit. If you line up the center bolt hole, nothing lines up, if you line up the intake tubes, all the boltholes are slightly off. I think the closest I could get them to line up only allowed the 2 bottom boltholes and the intakes, everything else was just out of range.

I was just curious if you had an adapter made? Or custom intake made?

i sawa at least 3 sets of these on preludes at the local yard this week.

if anyone is interested i could go pull a set for them.
