A Couple of Questions...
Hey All,
Ok, so I just picked up a 1991 Civic Si. The Gent that I purchased it from said they had swapped the old motor with a stock 1998 Civic motor. So that being the case, if I was wanting to add headers, intake, etc. Would I have to buy them for a 98?
When I make a left hand turn the front end shakes super bad, I'm thinking it's the axles, so again do I have to pick up axles for a 98?
Power steering... The Civic came without power steering, is it possible to add it?
My interior is decent other then the Drivers seat. Does anyone know where I could pick up a Stock Si drivers seat to match the rest of the interior??
Sorry for all the questions, this is my first older model Civic so I need all the help I can get!
Thanks Folks!

You will want to find out what motor you have in your vehicle by checking the block code which is on the front of the motor behind the rad, more info can be provided. From the block code you will determine if its a B or D series engine and when you want a header order one for that series "B" or "D" and whether you want a 4-1 or 4-2-1.
I suggest you check to see if you have a manual or power steering rack in your car. If you have a manual rack, then the switch isn't worth it as you'll have to convert your rack and put in the hoses and pump.
For the seats ebay, buy and sell on here or just keep your eyes peeled.
