Hello Engine forum.
So despite being a VW guy (at least for now :P) I'm looking for a project and I really want to try my hand at building an engine. I figured a Honda engine would be a good place to start since they are both a) plentiful and b) relatively cheap. I was just curious about what engine I should be looking for? The only ones I really know of are the k20, h22, b16 and d16 but it's hard to find one near me that isn't either apart or already built for racekors. If those really are the 4 most decent engines, which one should I go for? I was thinking h22 because there's no replacement for displacement but at the same time I've heard d16 single cams are pretty fun little engines too. Anyone have any suggestions? I don't really have a plan but to build an engine right now. Maybe buy a shell, maybe sell it to a Honda owner, maybe put in my Jetta just to piss people off, the end game is wide open. At the moment I'm just looking to gain knowledge through doing.
Cheers.
