engine swap for an 87 CRX
 

i know the 88's and above changed the design, but would i be correct in
assuming that if i found a prelude engine with less miles than the CRX's (or
equal, im not picky), that it SHOULD fit with little effort? no, i wont be
doing this on my own, i plan on paying someone to do this for me. while im
at it, does anyone have any suggestions as to what engine would fit with
little or no issues into an 87 CRX HF with only 120k miles on it? ty for
input.


ps - if anyone here is framiliar with daewoos... id like some assistance
with a 2k lanos s. thanks! (the daewoo groups are empty..)

a prelude engine would be okay however the best swap for your car would
be the D16A1 1.6 16V DOHC PGM-FI 1590 113hp@6250rpm 99tq@5500rpm
'86-'89 Integra (USA), it is a very tunable engine and it will mount
properly, accura didnt chang that till later. here is a sight from a
guy who has done it and given some details and lots of pics.

glad u liked it, looking at it again i see that the does try to be as
explanatory as possible which is nice. i am into the first and second
gen civics and recently have had my eye on the 79-81 accords. when i
can get the funds together i would like to do this swap into a honda of
that era.
