#1 of 3 Info on 1.5 to a 1.6 Motor swap by playingwithmud Nov 09, 2007 (5:17 pm)
Hello. Im looking to find out if anyone has done a 1.5 to a 1.6 motor swap. I have a 1993 honda civic hatch back and I got a 1.6 no VTec motor out of a 1988 honda CRX Si. Both motors had a manual transmission only the CRX clutch was a manual clutch and the Civic is hydrolic. I looked around a little and found that everyone is doing the newer vtec motor swaps but that dont help me in knowing weather or not the motor I have will fit or what I have to do to make it fit. I did keep all the wireing out of the CRX along with the computer. I was wondering if I would have to use them as well or can I leave the old wireing and computer in because the motor is a non vtec. Thanks for the help! Replies to this message: suvanisnear (Dec 14, 2007 5:09 pm)
