Ricer Engine-Swap Knowledge...

So I go to autozone to get a clip for my wheelwell (cause it's sagging). And all they have is fawkin chevy/ford/dodge parts (and rice). So I ask the dude workin there if they have any Honda/Acura clips. He's like "dunno bro, what kinda civic you got?" Why do I automatically have a Civic when I say I want a Honda part?? I told him I have a 2.3CL and he's like "not bad not bad, just not fast enough for me..."

Now I got curious as to his knowledge base...

me: "So what do you have?"
him: "A CRX"
me: "Ooh what do you have in it?"
him: "I got a exhaust but I wanna do a swap"
me: "b16?"
him: "nah I'm tryin to find a accord or a prelude motor"
me: "H22A?"
him: "nah I talked to some chick on the phone and she said to get a accord motor or somethin"
me: "and why is that?"
him: "I dunno, I wanna find a (get this...) F23 BUT THEY'RE HARD TO COME BY
me: "Yeah they're real elusive, but I managed to get a hold of one."
him: "HOLY SHIT CAN I SEE IT?"
me: "sure thing bro..."

So basically I show the kid my stock engine, he goes apeshit and says where'd you get it, so i told him i had connections...

I hate stupid ricers but they do make me laugh

Oh and by the way, his CRX...

The whole back of the car was primered, rusted out wheel wells, shitty altezzas, LED muffler, Type R stickers all over the damn thing, different rims front/back, an unmounted sub box with 2 12s (wouldnt that shake the damn panels loose?) It was just plain sad...yet funny...

oh please, d5c5b...f22s are everywhere...it's the f23s that can not be found anywhere (unless you are lucky and happen to find a 98-02 accord 4cyl or a 98-99 2.3cl...)

Please tell the guy to buy my f23a I've been trying to get rid of the dam thing for months and nobody is interested in a f series engine. I'll be luck to sell the dam thing for $500 when someone finally does make an offer.

Funny story by the way!
