Your better off buying a jdm d15b and swapping that in, it will be easier and cheaper! Pm me if you have any questions!

cheaper to replace the long block.

I can do it pm me .

Changing the rings will bring the cost up . Then you have to replace gaskets, bearings etc.

New engine is remove and install.. back on the road.

You can use a newer NON vtec motor . I would get something like a 1992-95 low miles SOHC. Its a direct replacement.
