Looks like a factory D15B7 or D15Z1 MPFI motor. Which would be stock for that car, not a swap.

look for the casting on the block, then you'll know for sure what you have, but to go along with the others, that does look like a factory d

Well, first off, it has a PGM-FI on the intake manifold. This only came on the OBD0 engines. Any 92-95 Civic engine does not have this on the manifold.

Plus, if you search D16A6 in the H-T marketplace and Yahoo Images, you get the same looking motor as the one you posted.

Here's an image of a D16A6

It's not a D15B (SOHC VTEC). There isn't a VTEC solenoid.

Like I said above, it's most likely a D16A6.

I'm voting for d16 a6 based on the pgmfi intake mani. And the valve cover is the same as the one out of my boys 91 crx si.

Just look at the sticker on the timing belt/cam gear cover. It should have the same code on it that the block has stamped into it.

The intake manifold and timing belt cover are from a D16A6 or pre-OBD SOHC ZC. Valve cover is pre-'94, if not pre-'92. The distributor is OBD-1 (two gray plugs).

I'm betting it's a D16A6 converted to OBD-1. Check the block stamp to confirm.
