is a direct swap but the lx motor doesn't have vtec & egr valve.
you need to use the 00 lx harness & ecu to avoid engine codes

We charge $480 for direct swap out, this includes fresh fluids and timing adjustment if necessary.

What are you going to do with the stuff in your HX like the EGR, engine, etc. etc.? Remember, if and when you do swap in that motor, you'll want to get new harnesses..
