Sure you can, as long as it's a D series block..single cam D though.

Shouldn't have any problems assuming you get a good block and your head is good.

If I'm wrong, someone can correct me on this:
I don't know if OBD level matters on D series blocks... it may make it easier if you stick with the same OBD level as your car - if it's OBDI, get an OBDI block. If you have an OBD2 car, the ECU may be looking for sensors that don't exist on an OBDI block.

yes, that's correct the OBD2 motors all have a CFK sensor on the lower timing pulley (crank pulley) for the timing belt... but you can bypass this with a wiring trick if necessary to use an older block. And also I think OBD2 D-series are the only ones with a knock sensor too...

^^^^That's what I thought.

Although if he's really in California (I didn't notice before), he probably wants a same year or newer engine to keep it legal.
