what do u mean by 'internal' swap?
swapping out the internals of a b16 into the d16 or just swapping the motors?
if ur just wanting to swap, it's been done.
Search.

why would want to swap internals??

Just swap a b16 in there. that would be nice. and yes, i have an 87 teg LS to go alone with my 92 gsr. Mine 87 LS has 300,000 miles all original.

A while back in Honda Tuning Magazine, there was a white 89 teg LS that the guy swapped a ITR engine and turbo'd it.

damm it looked so good and very clean.

but a b16 will do just fine.

huh? i doubt it.. b16 is 1.6L.

those stock motors arent anything special. but if you wanna rebuild it, im sure you can source the parts.

H22?? are you kidding.. that thing is huge and too heavy for that car.. and im sure a lot of work..


seriously, you can buy a complete b16 swap for $1000-$2000..

a b16 in a 89 Integra?? haha.. SLEEPER!!! lol that thing would be fast! and fun to drive.

yes the h22 is heavy but for the cost you will get better horse power for the money with sun rise motors in ca the h22 with trany and ecu and every thing else to make it run is 2200 to were the b16 just motor alone is same price as the h22 with every thing

hondaswap.com has a nice writeup for what you need to get a B16 in there. I have an 89 with 176k on it as well and I looked into that option. You don't need a whole lot, just a few custom things and various parts from various cars and you'll be fine.
