No doubt that a diesel woul dbe the best power plant to use. I happen
to have a Civic motor that was nearly free and has less than 4k miles
on it. I do however agree with you about the Honda engine not being
very efficient down at 1800 RPM and have considered a 2:1 reduction
which I may opt for. Still would like to have some idea as to the
power curve down on the low end.

1800 won't be most efficient for that engine - probably best to use a
geared reduction or better yet, a lower revving diesel engine.

I'm looking for a HP/Torque curve for a D16Y5 (2000 Civic HX). I'm
building a power generator and need to know how much power this engine
will develop at 1800 RPM. - DoubleD
