anyway, my question is... what kinda engine is http://www.hmotorsonline.com/s...30011 &lt;--this? (from a Prelude maybe..?)

and, will it fit in a 96 civic coupe?</TD></TR></TABLE>


That my friend is the all mighty prelude H22A motor. and yes it will fit into 96+ civics with ease. although you will have to buy aftermarket motor mounts to make it fit in without too much trouble.

correcto.

HCP mounts, HAsport mounts. You will also need to purchase a set of custom axles, or use 90-93 axles with 90 accord intermediate shaft.

Wiring, you will need to do or you can have it done.

ouch, sounds kinda pricey, how much would all that include? (including the shipping for the engine estimate, cause it doesnt say on the website)

i was thinkin about getting a loan for like 5k and doin a sick-*** engine swap (guess i picked a good engine eh? ) would that be enough to get the job done?

5K should be enough. Are you doing the swap yourself or having it done?

nah, im probly gonna have it done cause i dont wanna spend 5g's on a bad-*** engine and **** it up by trying to do it myself, plus i doubt i have the necessary tools/equipment for the job anyway...

so, with THAT said, is 5k still gonna be enough?
