Could someone please help. I recently purchased a 1992 civic cx hatchback 5-speed. The head gasket was blown and after tearing the head off the motor, it was in worse shape than i expected so know i am looking for a motor.
http://www.nippon-motors.com/honda.htm has a list of motors, one of which is listed as a "92-95 Civic, Del Sol, D15B2, SOHC, 16 Valve, 92HP, 24mm Crank snout D15B 1.5 $395 ". is this motor a direct replacement for my motor(and will it bolt to my tranny?)? I see the horsepower number is different and I have no knowledge of honda's at all. I am only looking for a simple replacement that requires no modifications as this is a secondary car used primarily for interstate travel to and from work everyday so performance is not an issue but gas mileage and reliability is. If anyone has any idea where I can get a motor for this car other than the site I listed I would really appreciate it, I am trying to pick up a motor for under 500 bucks if possible. thanks.
