What are hp specs on the Prelude 2.0? I've never actually heard of doing this swap, but sounds original. Could be to much trouble to even bother with.
Will be dropping a DOHC ZC in my 86 Civic Si when the EW4 dies. That may be a while...
Current upgrades: Integra front brakes; Modified Civic Wagon springs; Lowered; 15"x7" steel rims with Yokohama tires
Parts that I have waiting to be installed: Urethane bushings; Sway bars; Tokiko HP struts and shocks; Strut and shock tower bars
Future Upgrades: DOHC ZC swap (JDM Brown Top); Integra rear disk brakes; Reupholster seats; Repair dents; New paint, likely the same red

Depends on how much money you have to spend and what your intensions are.
AutoX? Drag? Street?

I vaguely remember hearing that the 2.0 Prelude motor may fit, but it's not
worth the bullshit.

If you want insane power go turbo or build up your D15A3 with carbs, teggy pistons
the whole nine yards. If you have a load of money, go B series, and if you have
even more money on top of that - turbo B series.

I have a ZC in my 87. It's faster than stock, but I still have some serious ironing
out to do to make it even faster. I am on a budget, so B series was ruled out from
the start, the ZC swap can be done for under $1000.
