1997 Civic LX w/306,000 miles (suggestions please)
I'm thinking it's getting time for a new engine. I would like something with a little more power but most of all I want something with better gas mileage and not too expensive swap. Am I better off going with the same engine or going with an engine from an EX (d16y???). I've researched but can't find an easy reference for the names again.
Thanks,
Jason

At 306K miles, anything will probably have more power. Which engine, though...This depends on your goals for the car. Is it just a daily driver? Swapping in a D16y8 is probably the cheapest route. A little more expensive, but more power? Go for a B18b1 for non-vtec. B18c1 (integra GSR engine) for vtec.
