Honda Engine Swaps Paperback – August 30, 2004

Good

So far an amazing book that has surprised me with a chock full of information tidbits and goodies that I didn't know about when it comes to these b serious motors. Great book to open up and just read for a light bit of night reading.

If you have never done a Honda engine swap before this is one you may want to get. It gives some great reference points and a general view of how to go about the swap. It lists many different chassis and engine combos that you may be interested in, and gives important points to keep in mind when doing a swap. If you are already a seasoned mechanic that has done many engine transplants, then this may not interest you all that much, but for the rookie, it would be great.

En este libro sólo bienen los swaps que le quedan con los soportes originales del honda civic, no vienen modificaciones para soportes

This book is great I would be even more stoked on it if my brother hadn't stolen it. But it is seriously a great book. There's a lot of do-it-yourself stuff in here that a lot of people may have the desire to learn but don't have anyone to show them. Definitely pick up a copy if you have a Honda or are interested in swapping your motor.

I have found this book very helpful with my civic b series swap. Almost all aspects of the swap where covered well. Several other engine to chassis swaps are covered in this book. Aron bonk clearly illustrates the mechanical, and electrical modifications required for each swap. Also covered are the pro and cons as well as the difficulty of each swap. I believe the book is well written and easy to understand.

Good info

This book is beyond pointless for anyone wanting to swap in 2021. It has info on D series swaps and a slight touch on "the future" of b series swapping. You can forget about B, K, H... information

Sorry Bonk but 2 stars is the most I can give for this book. It is essentially a one trick pony, and provides a common list of parts one must collect when performing a Honda engine swap. I was disappointed that a self proclaimed Honda engine swapping guru did not provide a troubleshooting section when performing such swaps, or blueprints on how to alter a factory wiring harness to correspond to the D, B, H, or K series motor that the reader is putting into their vehicle. Maybe all of his swaps went like butter or maybe he did not want to experiment in converting obd1 to obd2, altering a JDM wiring harness to accommodate a North American vehicle, or how to DIY patch ECU and engine wire harness.

Great book this. A lot of info you can learn online but this packs everything from the ground off. Well worth having if you are going for your fist B series install.

I was expecting something more than advertisement and suggestions to use aftermarket conversion/swap kits . This supposed to be the Honda engine swap guide, but in one of the most important parts of each swap, which is wiring, we have only information to go to car service manual. For example page 21: "These newfound sensors must be recognized and located in service manual". If it supposed to be complete swap guide, then there should be also wiring instructions and diagrams. If I still have to look for information in the car instruction, then what is the sense of this kind of guide?
