LMAO, they sound intelligent! Strangely enough, I'm not surprised they own a honda.

Whats even worse is how heavy can a Honda Vtec engine be? I lifted a 22R Toyo motor into the back of a truck this weekend, that just took two of us to do.

Guess those Honduh guys need to get to the gym more often.

While I'm not one to critize anyone's writing skills, I sure hope that these guys can wrench better than they can spell and type.

I wonder if they can spell "Grenade" - for that must be what their motor will do!

Must be all the bolt on mods that are weighting it down.

I rebuilt a VW engine on my desk in college -- in the basement of the Clyde building -- two of us carried it out -- but we were S M A R T!

I was jokin about the 1000 pounds

They should screw a winch into the floor at the top of the stairs, put the motor on a sled, and drag it up.

But their mom probably doesn't want them to scratch her floor.

HA HA!!!

Nice pic LOL. If he can bench 298, then I can bench 400! What a liar. That engine looks like the one in my mower, same size and make.

If that was a photo of me at the bottom of the stairs with the motor, I would have a bag over my head so that everyone would know me as the "Unknown Dumba$$" (i.e. unknown comic)!

The boy is obviously all muscle and no brains!

I say they take the whole car apart, move it downstairs, then put it all back together. After they finish doing that they can drive it around in circles in the basement since that's all the honda boys do anyways. They need to get a life and get off of the loop! Maybe next time they should buy a real car, one with RWD perhaps?

But why? Front wheel drive is safest for the family! And nobody wants to get groceries in a rear wheel drive car.

Rear wheel drive is for "sports" cars afterall.

But But But you can't drift FWD It might be the safest but it definately isn't the most fun Besides, Honda can't even get RWD right, has anybody ever heard of an S2000 driven well??? I mean from what I've heard if you push the limits on one it'll spin around in a circle, what fun is that?
