block + head = longblock
block only = shortblock

I would advise doing more research. You should get a complete swap if you are dropping it in a DX. Unless you are going to piece the swap together. If you want simplicity, just an OBD-0 B16 (88-91). Otherwise you will either need to add some wires, or get a harness. A longblock won't do much good without a tranny, that's why I advise getting a complete swap.

You wouldn't be on here if you weren't trying to learn more now would you? We all start somewhere...some of us are closer to broke since we started .
