i just bought this hatch three weeks ago and after driving it for awhile now i think its too... slow. not trying to be fast as hell or anything but i have a 97 honda civic ex with a d16y8. what will i need to swap engines?

 

bump

 

first your gonna need a cherry picker, other than that you will need mounts to fit a b series motor if thats what you decide to go with to your car , b series axels, change it over to 0bd1 because running obd0 is old news and most of all a new motor and trans to put in

 

I think he wan't to use the motor from the ex. It will bolt right in but you need to use the cable transmision and run vtec wires and mpfi change over.
