Default Swapping a 94-95 accord motor into a 96-97?

Hey guys i have a 97 Honda accord SE. My motor just blew up. I honestly have never messed with F series, only H, B, and D. Will a 95 accord motor fit into my 97? I'm guessing obivously i have to change distributor and bypass crank position sensor that the OBD2 has? thanks

Anything else i need to switch please let me know. this is my DD. Thanks guys!

Basically just swap the short block and its down right simple. Use your manifold and dizzy to make it even easier.

Technically its illegal. But if you dont have emissions in your state, and you never sell the car, its ok.

It'll fit no problem. You'll need to swap oil pump. The 96/97 Accord has a crank sensor on the oil pump while the 94/95 Accord has them in the distributor. You'll need to swap them or it won't fire up.

I believe there's another way to do it to, but not sure how.
