Default putting a 91 CRX Si engine into my 91 LX

i was wondering how hard this is to adapt (i cant imagine its too hard) also if theres anything i need to get like a new alternator, starter, ac compressor etc or if they would easily interchange.

They will easily interchange and you should have 0 problems with this swap.

good luck

I did a swap like that before. If you have power steering, the lx bracket will not fit on the si. I forget which one you need, but there is a bracket that works.

You will need to convert your dual point fuel injection(2 injectors) wiring over to a multipoint fuel injection(4 injectors) setup. That will be the only time consuming task when swapping the Si motor into your LX. Do a search for mpfi and you should find a lot of info.
