the 88 started using fuel injection right? would there be a whole lot more to do to put an 88 engine into the 87?

you will need custom mounts (ie. welding). all the 84-87 Si cars are fuel injected, converting to FI is a bit of a job in itself as you need to upgrade the fuel system to the higher pressure.

Thanks for the info. I was looking at an 87 SI(190k), but the idiotic dealer wouldn't go below sticker( about 2k ). Found a 91 HF with under 100k for about same, so I'll just get that in preparation for the summer gas price spikes. I'll run that to school and work till I need a swap, which will be many, many, many years away
