I want some oppinions here.

I want to do an engine swap on my '94 Civic Sedan. It currently has a B13(carb) :eek7:

I was thinking of putting a 1600 Vtech DOHC in it, but I want to know what kind of problems I will have to face and possible costs involved with this transplant. I know I will need to change the computer, wireing harness, fuel tank and pump, but is there anything other major thing that will need to be changed? :iceslolan

Actually I live in the caribbean. Pretty much all of the 94 civics here are carbs (to start off with ;) ), although there are a few 1500 and 1600s out there.



I just dont want to get myself into something that will require too much work and money :nono:

but Ill check out that site, and any other help is apreciated much ;)

A carb'ed 94? I know other countries get outdated stuff, but Honda stopped making carbs in like 1987.
