No.

The only swaps I'm aware of that use the older CVCC's used the late 80's Integra ZV *D16 Twincam* engines, and those STILL required frame notching and SERIOUS fabrication skills, and custom mounts.

After some searching, I found there is a 80 CVCC with a B16 in it, but again, serious fabrication work

I just called my friend asking if he though he could do it and he said he could but everything in it would have to be redone and wouldnt be worth the money.

I think that would be so awesome though.

that would be a great idea, but stick to something that would not cost an arm and a leg. try a K20 on a integra that would be sick!!!! and worth your money. mostlikely it will cost about the same since it's a unusuall swap. Do what ever you think is right for you. Good luck

The people in the Classics section would probably know better.

K20 /= 'costing about the same'

common swap, a 77 civic is a CVCC btw,

fuel cell, fuel pump, new lines, mounts (easy ish) renforcement of the frame/chassis (stich weld it)

new gauge cluster, ECU, wiring from gsr/ do it yourself,

uhhhhhh that's pretty much it, they are not popular track cars becuase their older suspension desin but otherwise yup

weighs about 100 pounds less than an series 2 elise
