Project Backmarker is Going B Series
By Aaron Gaghagen and Brian Gillespie

When we left off Brian was taking apart our ZC engine. He found that the ZC was not in the best shape. Since then we have decided to power our Civic with a retro B series. The B series that we will go with is the B18C1 from a third gen Integra, but that engine needs to be rebuilt. In the meantime we’re going to install the unicorn of USDM second gen engines, the B17. Not a bad fall back, eh?
