Default What options?

I was just throwing the idea of a swap later on down the road i'd figure.... I'd ask a few questions to get me going.


I own 2, 1994 honda civic DX's My question is what are the engines that will fit with less hassle? what options do I have.


I did some searches but nothing about the dx's thanks alot guys love the site

less hassle would be a b series engine (b16a2,b18b1,b18c1 etc..) but if you want to swap your engine out it always comes down to how much cash you want to throw at it. if you have a budget of 1100 or so you can do a mini me swap. good luck

swap with a V-tec single cam motor and if don't change computer then get a v-tec controller.. but only gain 20 horses... that is the cheapest way, cuz every fits right in.
