This a swap that I've been piecing together for a couple years....slowly. I have a 1988 CRx Si
that this was going to go in but plans have changed and I know want to go B20 Vtec much to my
wifes utter amazement of how I could get this far and put this much work into something then to
just change my mind. Any heres a small writeup/backstory/parts list.
Friend had a 1991 Crx Si and wanted to do the same thing I want to do now so I bought the
D16A6 swap off of him. The block has 58,909 miles on it and the same on the 5 speed PR3
transmission. The D16Z6 head was taken off a 1995 Del Sol Si that had 119,765 miles on it.
The head had new valves,seals,guides,springs and retainers installed along with a new
Comp Cams 59100 Camshaft. The head was then put on the block and installed with a D16Y8
headgasket (to bump compression a bit) ARP headbolts were used along with an AEM cam
gear. New NGK spark plugs and NGK wires were installed along with a brand new Vtec
distributor new water pump along with timing belt and tensioner. New clutch and pressure plate along with a new throw out bearing were done also.
This has a D16Y8 intake manifold as this is the best flowing OEM intake for the D-series. It has
an AEM fuel rail with an AEM fpr (that will not be included as this will be taken for my B-series
swap) also installed on the intake is a Holley 62mm throttle body. I know there is other stuff I'm
missing and also a ton of spare parts will be included. But basically if someone is looking for a
D-series swap with all the best parts and low miles than this is it. I could part this out and make
a ton more but I'm thinking someone has to be still rocking the D-series. This would also be a
perfect set up for boost. Anyway if your interested make me an offer and I'm hoping someone
wants it. Any questions fire away............Thanks.

Really don't have a set price. I want to sell it but I'm not going to let it go for $10.00 and a six pack either. Everybody knows what a decent price is-shoot me an offer if it's not decent I'll politely refuse. Thanks
