Default Which Engine?

I have a 96 Civic DX and I am putting a 96 AEM V2 cold air intake in that will be connected to a 99 EX manifold. The throttle body that I will hopefully be getting is coming off of a 98 EX manifold. Will I be able to put my censors from my DX onto the Throttle Body of the 98 EX. Also about the Engine. I was wondering what engine I should swap for since my D16y7 Engine does not have any real power. I was thinking about a B16a2 engine but didnt know if the V2 intake would fit onto the B16a2 engine. If it wont should I just try to get a d16Y8 engine or is there a better engine that will fit in my car and one my V2 intake?
Please Help!

-Shane</TD></TR></TABLE>how does that work??...i thought the throttle body on the b16 is larger than the d16.

I think it could work...you just need to modify a little.

dont buy na engine based upon what intake u got, the intake should be the least of your conserned is is a lot cheaper than the motor so get a different motor then worry about the intake

You have a long way to go before you're ready for a swap. Search the archives.
