Delicate?
If you mean bullet proof and un-killable then you would be right.
But people have done b16 swaps into them with a lot of fab work.
I'll but your a series if you swap it out

do you have any pics of your car?

Your engine is an "A" series. If you take it out i'll buy it from you.
The engine is very tough. As long as you take care of it, it's going to take care of you.

i wouldnt do a b16 in an accord, the 86-89 accord is around 2500lbs which is more 300 more than the EG, and even those with a b16 aint fast
