The EK1 1.8l engine was manufactured by Honda Motor Company between 1979-1983 for the 1st generation Honda Accord, 1st generation Honda Prelude, 1st generation Honda Vigor and early 2nd generation Honda Accord models. It was a water cooled, SOHC 12-Valve CVCC engine with a displacement of 1.8L (1751CC). Output varied as the engine went through two updates during it's production. Most notably was the introduction of the CVCC-II emission setup in late 1980 models. The EK1 1.8l engine was standard in Japanese and US Markets. All other markets worldwide had standard the EL 1.6L engine. Transmission choices were Hondamatic 3spd/4spd or manual 5 speed.
