Default J30A1 swap an 88 EF hatch

Just curious if it’s been done? I have the chassis and the engine/transmission. Just curious if anyone has done this swap. Pointers appreciated.

Aww disappointed... thought this would be a thread on a swap lol. I want to say I saw a video of a J30 or maybe the 3.x... physically fitting into an even older and smaller Honda engine bay. Like 2nd or 3rd gen. So I think it's possible.

Yes it's been done, I'm in the midst of doing one myself but I've been collecting parts for about 11years now. P2R has swap parts, hasport has the motor mounts, insane shafts has the axles, depends how deep you wanna go but there is the AEM series 2 full stand-alone for a computer or some people using a Honda Odyssey computer, custom harness for sure not sure who's making them anymore.
