Smallest in displacement yes but not in power. The D series is the base model, sh*ttiest motor they make. They are SOHC while the B,H, and K are DOHC. I spanked my buddies B swapped hatch in my wifes 98 sixer. The only thing they have going for they is the weight of their wind up toys. One of the biggest reasons they like the CRX so much.

the K20 is the strongest motor acura/honda makes. Its the motor in the Acura RSX-S's. when put into an eg9 hatchback honda, they are pretty quick.

RE: 95 Civic
Yea well, I pulled away from my buddies car and no one said anything about going down the 1/4 mile either. The K20 in ahatch is a swap I would do if I liked Honda's. Me and a buddy were suppsoed to do one until his car was stolen and he moved back home. A guy at work is wanting to drop a h23 I have sittin in my garage into his Del Sol or do a H to B setup which is really a much better setup. That motor is from a H22 swap I did to a another guys Prelude.
IDk what D series/ 5.0 matches you have seen but I have never seen a 5.0 lose to a D series honda. And 5.0's stock have been proven to run mid to low 14's. MM&FF did a track test and ran a 13.9 a few years back in a stocksetup except for some mufflers

Yeah, there's really no point in dumping money into a D series when Bs are as cheap as they are. There's one around here making 700whp on a D though. Not sure how long it'll last, but I can post the dyno if anyone is interested in seeing it.
