i have an 86 crx si and i have no clue what engine is in it ..i know its an sohc and its stock but i cant seem to find any numbers on the block or anywhere..heres a pic of the engine so someone can help me out

 

EW4 or D15. should be EW though, they were renamed D15 in 87..

 

EW4 aka D15A3

on the back corner of the block there is a number but the head covers up most of it, its on the timing belt side

91hp from the factory i believe

 

yours has been devac'd as well, so it should run nice, unless they messed it up

 

Reminds me of my first handed down car.

 

ya its a good running car so far iv had it for probably around 6 months it dosnt get drove everyday but i start it up everyday i paid $400 for her and i love it to death it needs alot of work but so far all it has it a mysterious oil leak from somewhere on the back of the block ...and to everyone thanks for your help ..ill post all the pix of it in a lil bit

 

Good find,just picked me up an 87 non si (for now,lol) totally unmolested (well,yet)
Post some pix when ya have the time...

 

i have most of the pics i took of it in a thread on here ..its a beater right now until i find either a full car to put my engine in or a parts car

 

Bumpp for an old school car

<----pointz to the blue colored engine tag near battery on the core support in picture...
(unless swapped to si?) mine says d15a2,wish it said d15a3... Post VIN

 

i was wondering if there was any swaps i could do without changing motor mounts or anything and where is the vin located

 

D16A1 (requires some wiring + other easy stuff) And VIN is above ur speedo,next to winshield... (lil tag that'll start w JHMXXXXXXX) Has rivets holding it on,ya know? like any vehicle!
