do I have a short block or long block?
May sound like a stupid question, but considering what WellFedHobo told me about how much it cost him to have a shop do a swap in his 5th gen, I think I'll take the chances of either getting a new block or perhaps a rebuild kit online.
Was looking on Ebay and saw one guy selling a remanufactured 5th gen (95 to be exact, which is what I have) Civic EX long block for $1,400 plus shipping and core. Okay, then down the page I saw another guy selling a used, but not remanufactured 5th gen Civic EX short block for $500 plus shipping, no core. I don't even know if I have a long block or a short block. I'm assuming the long block is a DOHC and the short is a SOHC (I have SOHC), but I'm not positive and I don't know where else to ask. Btw, my engine is a JDM (Japan-made).
Thanks for any info.
