Swap for 87 Si
I would like an opinion for a swap for my 87 CRX si. I understand that he zc motor swap is very easy and straight forward and also very cheap. I am also interested in swapping a first gen B16a using the hasport motor mount kit. I was wondering if anyone has done this swap. I am looking for any kind of feedback, such as total cost of doing the B series swap and an problems you may have run into.
Thanks
Thanks

Re: Swap for 87 Si (MugenEg)
I've seen a 1st gen crx with a b16a swap with a drag 3 turbo kit low 12's with slicks and 9.5psi... He said if he was running a Hondata stand alone he could fine tune it and do at least 16psi and run in the low 11's possibly high 10's... I dunno if thats true or not cause i am not to into the hole turbo thing... but good luck with your project

sport compact car did that swap a couple months ago. The web site should have it on in technical or something. If not, find a friend who has it. Its pretty good, just make sure to also use a manual for torque specs. And don't expect to keep A/C.

Re: Swap for 87 Si (BoostedEX)
that girl with CDE ran a STOCK b16a in an 87 CRX which weighed ~ 1850 with her in it and got a 12.7 @ MIR. that crap will roll.....
HASport mounts new are really crazy price like 600+ but there may be a group buy or something to bring it down.
dont forget that the b series mounts will do everything from ls to b20 with b16a head, etc. so lots of possibilities. i am going crvtec into 87 CRX Si...

Sport Compact had the B16 swap into an 86 CRX in December of 2001 I believe.
As for machining hubs like the hybrid page says, don't do it, it is not necessary. Just bolt the 86-89 Integra knuckles and hubs into place.
