Default engine swap question

How much work is it, and is it worth it to put a 1990 integra engine into fourth generation civic? Or maybe into a first generation CRX?
-Thanks a bunch

How much work depends on what engine you want to swap. Then you have to ask yourself is my car MPFI or are you doing an OBD0-1 swap? No swap is simple. There are many factors that come into play. Is your swap going to be "B" series or "D" series? Then we can help you.

I believe its a D16A1 into a Dual Point Fuel Injected 1990 civic. Or a D16A1 into an 87 CRX si with multipoint fuel injection.

Into a 4g Civic? Yes, a good swap. Into a 1g CRX? No, nagada, a total pita.

D16A1 = 86-89 Integra engine w/mpfi. Fits into 84-87 Civic/CRX, but not easily into anything else.
