I have 95 Civic DX 5 speed standard, I have a blown engine . Interested in doing an engine swap. Any recommendations? What size engine? Difficult level for engine swap. Do I need to change wiring / ECU etc...

First of all... welcome to the forum.

Now, head on over to EG Swaps (http://www.hondacivicforum.com/forumid_218/tt.htm) and start reading. There is lots of info over there. I've never done a swap but just reading about them I would have to say the B16 is the best bang for the buck/ease of install. I am sure some of the other guys can give you more suggestions and details.

Good luck and make sure to keep us posted.

find a b16 somewhere and yes the ecu and wiring will need to be updated

when you mention B16, would this be a ZC. Could I swap a ZC & 5 speed tranny, including zc axles?

if u are not worried about spending too much money go for a b18c5, Thats a real fast motor. Youll be amazed what that will do compared to the stock motor. Wow.
