93 Civic D16Z6 - Any issues with D15B7 swap (motor mount positions, wiring, etc)?
I recently bought a 1993 Si hatch (D16z6), and it has a lot of miles and kinda wanna swap it before it blows up. And i have a 1995 Dx Hatch (D15B7) with less miles and in perfect running condition. (Wrecked the car, just sitting in the garage) wanted to know if it would swap without having any issues (motor mount positions, wiring, etc.)
Please let me know, i do understand that swapping the z6 for that engine isn't the brightest idea. Just wanna know if it could be done without any bumps in the process, thanks alot.

mounts should all be the same, the wiring will all plug and play except you will have the Vtec solenoid pigtail not connected obvs, i would change the ecu to a p06 or any other non Vtec sohc ecu though I've had to do this swap on my daily to get through most of last winter, never had any issues

Since you have the complete B7 car there, easily swap the engine and ecu to the Z6 car. You will have the vtec plugs not plugged in anywhere but all will run just fine as a b7.
This is also assuming both cars are manual transmission.
Automatics aren't as friendly with each other.
