Re: 91 Civic Dx Manual 5 Speed...What motor can I swap ??
Not really vague, just depends how much work you want to do. The easiest would be an A6 swap from an Si. Just requires the MPFI swap(which any swap needs). Then you could do a Z6 or y8 which would either require a OBD0-OBD1 conversion harness or an A6 ECU and distributor and something to kick the VTEC in.
once again, I will point you in the same direction I point a lot of new people, no searching for the right post, ill give it to you http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...7&postcount=27 Enjoy

Re: 91 Civic Dx Manual 5 Speed...What motor can I swap ??
instead of swapping the whole head, for the A6 part, you can swap just the cam. it's alot easier, then do the MPFI swap, and it's the same thing as having the A6 head swap... I dont recommend the head swap unless you're already doing something inside the engine.. other than the cam, there is just about nothing different between the A6 and the B2 engine.

Drop, are you going crazy? No one said anything about swapping the heads out
 He said engine swaps, A6 is by far the easiest, and if you take your route to it, its even easier

Re: 91 Civic Dx Manual 5 Speed...What motor can I swap ??
yeah, I don't know what the hell has been wrong w/ me... been beat all week...
Anyway, it's valuable info if you don't wanna do a complete swap, so take it to mind. Either way, MPFI is definitely needed for anything, if you plan on making more than 100 HP. I mean seriously, whoever thought of DPFI needs to be shot.
