Default Swapping?

What are my options for engines that will fit my car that have more then 150HP? I have a 2002 Civic LX. It has a D series engine in it stock I believe, and it's only pushing about 115HP.

Your question is VERY general. Do you have a budget in mind? With an unlimited budget, you can do anything.

Take a look at the FAQ's for engine swaps and see what is good for you. The possibilites are pretty much limitless.

okay to make it a little more specific I would like an engine that will sit on top of the stock tranny.

civics and integras/rsx are based on the same chassis. so a k should bolt right into your 02 civic without problems. you'll need the matching tranny tho. and same thing for the 94 civic, a b series should bolt right in, but again, you'll need the matching tranny. try a search, or use the faqs. these questions have been answered LITERALLY 100 times at least...
