Me and a friend of mine put a complete D16Z6 minus tranny for a mini-me swap in the back of his 4G civic HB. "Like a glove"

The added weight should be a problem. What weighs more? 3 passengers or an engine?

what would be the best way of carrying it, i was gonna take out my rear seats, put a a tire down on top of some rags and then rest the block in tehre
then carry the head and intake mani elsewhere

sounds good?

The tire idea is a good one!!
Put the other parts on cloths on the floor in front of the passengersseat.
Stuff that's allready on the floor can fall.
