it would but you would need to rewire(and i think it has a hydro tranny) to put it bluntly, you can put almost any honda engine in your car, lol. you just gotta find the best priced and how much work you want to put into it. id reccomend and d15, d16 for your situation. the d15(jdm) is a good route to go, they can squeeze alot of power out of this one.(years just mean that you might have to wire something differently and it might have a hydraulic tranny instead of your cable style tranny(i hear they r pains to switch but i may be wrong)

if it came with a d series engine, then you need another d series engine(d15b in my opinion) to mate the 2. it should just bolt up to the new engine

blah vtec is overated for sohc's. and for your price range i would look into finding an 88-91 civic si/ex, crx si d16a6 engine. its a great platform to start with on the cheap. and all your old stuff will bolt right on to the engine including your distributor, intake mani, exh mani.
