NEED SOME HELP WITH A SWAP
Hi my name is josh,
i recently purchased a 92 honda civic dx sedan with a blown motor and of course it has the 1.5 non vtec (D15B7) in it.. well when i was lookin for a new motor i purchased a 1.6 sohc vtec (D16Z6) and i was wondering will this engine drop right in with no problems or will i have to modify it in anyway? if so what exactly will i need and about how much will it cost?

SEARCH... It will drop in, you will need a p28 ECU, and add vtec wires for the engine. With the DX tranny, it will be sluggish...
