I'm guessing your car is at least a 93? The 230 hp type II motor was the C32A

and no, you won't be able to swap that into a 4th generation civic without spending A LOT of time and money!

Check a scrap yard. Or buy a honda for what a decent AC body would cost. Why do that with an old Legend? How does the engine run anyways? Is it really going to be worth it?
