D16 into 86 Civic
Howdy all, I currently own a carburated 86 Civic Hatchback, it's currently a rally car, but with only 60HP, it doesn't have much race to it...
My only real chance of a swap would be with a D16 or ZC engine out of a first-gen Acura, but even if the engine just bolts in, there will be much work ahead since the car isn't EFI right now; namely the wiring harness and fuel system.
I've done as much research as I can, but I want to ask the people that have done this, what should I look out for? Is there something that I absolutely shouldn't forget to grab whenever I buy an engine from the junkyard?
Thanks!
