@civicdrivr dude look at the video. look at the swap parts. intake manifold modded(but stock), it has a intake, and I doubt you can use a stock exhaust so that is modded. And it doesnt mention header. There are two dyno plots, it is DYNO TUNED as my post before says. Lets not talk about swapping cranks and turbo'ing it. And then mentioning not making LS power.

The whole point of any swap is usually 3 things.
1. cheap/affordable/cost effective, which this is not, especially when you have to do custom fabrication and a bunch of labor when compared to something like a jackson racing super charger which can be installed and tuned in a day.
2. fast, kinda, but not really for the price, unless you time is free or you have lots of it.
3. reliable, yes because honda, no because engines are used as these older motors have been sitting.
