New Engine??

New Engine??
Hi I'm new to Honda Civic Forum and I'm having trouble figuring out where to post my thread. I live in CA and have a 95 Civic EX that had recent engine problems and I gotta get a new engine. Any estimates on how much I should spend and where I should go? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the welcome!
Had an oil leak that resulted in a busted oil pump. Had around 200k miles on the car so I decided to change the engine while replacing the oil pump at the same time. It's almost like getting a new ride altogether!

From the sound of it, he hasn't swapped a new engine in.
If that's the case, I'd recommend either another D16Z6 or a D16Y8. They'll be both the easiest and (since you're in CA) the most legal swap.
As far as other engines, what exactly is your budget? FWIW, you shouldn't be paying much more than $300-500 for a complete D16z6 or D16y8.

Thanks for the suggestion reaper2022. I wish I got that advice a couple days ago! My step dad believed the most reliable engine swap would be to purchase a stock engine brand new and have a car repair shop replace it for me. Overall costs about $5000 but my car should get another 250k miles... what do you guys think?
