What will bolt into 84 CRX HF?

I have a 84 CRX HF, but the motor is blown. What engines will bolt in without crazy engine mounts?

Re: What will bolt into 84 CRX HF?

any honda motor from 87 or earlier, or the 86-89 integra motor, look in my sig for more details (the first link, "D16A1" leads to a lits of honda engines) your engine is carb so i would be looking for another carb engine if you dont want to do all the work to convert to fuel injection

1st gen ZC would fit in there, but it will hit your hood on the timing belt side, you'd have to cut the skeleton underneath.

Yeah I here ya. I have a 91 CRX Si right now that running good. But I came accross this 84 CRX HF and the body is pefect and I mean perfect, fresh paint job, no rips/tears/smudges/stains/nothing wrong with the interior. The engine is bad that was all and I bought it for $100. There was a tad of surface rust on the one wheel well which I am in the process of gettin it off. Besides that it's nice, just needs an engine. I'm looking into making it to the 1.6l FI d16y8 motor. I needa do some research. Is it possible for a D15 vtec motor to bolt in? I'm not sure but my friend had a 86 CRX Si which was a 1.5l. So they should be interchangeable correct?

no B series engine will bolt in, no D series engine will bolt in except the D16A1 (86-89 integra), your friends 1.5 will bolt in. the best bang for your buck is the D16A1 (113 hp) if you are looking to do a performance swap and this post is full of information for that swap
