1.6 SOHC Vtec

I mentioned this before, but im buying a 1.6 SOHC Vtec out of a 93 civic. It comes with tranny and i know this will bolt up and just in case im getting the half shafts from the 93 as well. My question is will i need a motor mount kit? My civic is DX so it has dual point injection so i know i need to modify the injector wiring and hook up the vtec, Im just not sure if it will bolt in like a ZC. And also, if i need a kit could i fabricate one with the mounts out of the 93? Just a coupla questions...

It'll bolt up without a kit. Im not sure if teh tranny will work though. If i remember correctly it has a hydralic clutch adn ours have cable clutch...but i could be wrong

..the engine will be a straight bolt-in providing you use a 88-91 tranny...you cannot use the 92-95 tranny...its got nothing to do w/ it being hydro, it simply does not bolt in...the mounts are way off and 3 of the 4 motor mounts are on the tranny...there's no point in messin w/ it anyway as the 88-91 tranny bolts up to the z6 no problem...

heh... i knew i was wrong...

ah thank you for the info.. btw, how much does a 92-95 civic tranny go for :D

..not really sure, check ads at www.thepartstrader.com to see what people are gettin for em...

Ive got that swap in my 91 dx hatch.....you'll love it when you get it done.

I want to do the same with my 89 std. What all would I need? New front axles, 92-95 engine, 88-91 tranny...is that all??
