Wow! I was looking for some info. on engine swaps and I guess I found the right place! This helped me a lot. Thanks for the post!

I think the main post at the beginning should be edited to let people know that the H22a doesn't weigh a ton more than the B-series motors. And that it's the way the motor leans that causes the understeer. I didn't realize it was still in the post until I just read this again. It's a complete myth that has gone as far as being published in magazines and books, we should end the misinformation here.

Sorry if this has already been asked, but im looking all over and can't find any info on places that sell D16Z6 motors.

Anyone know a place that sells them? Only place i've found them is eBay so far

[GScivic7]

www.hmotorsonline.com you have to call them about it though. Or your local junkyard, I'm sure you'll be able to find one if you look around your local junkyards.

[Thenowhereman42]

nearest junkyard is like an hour away half way to Ventura ><

Ouch, well, best bet would be hmotors then. Good people and good service. And they carry motors that aren't listed on their site, they just have the more popular ones listed there.

I know a cople of places where they sell engines in Ca off I-57 and I-91


I have a friend that gave me a D16Z6 engine and I want to put it in my 95 honda civic that has a D15B7. the engine is complet to include the manifolds, and all. now my question is, do I need to change the ECU and how do I do it? or what ealse do I need? is it worth it? I dont realy want it for racing or anything like that but I would like a lil more power going up the Hill.

[CivicSpoon]

The ECU is on passenger side, pull up the carpet on the side with the door. Take off the metal bracket thing that holds it in. Unplug the plugs and that's it. You'll also need to run wires for VTEC. 2 to the ECU and 1 for ground, check this link out: http://www.hondaswap.com/~pills/obd1guide.html

We've come to the conclusion that if you're going cheap, get a Del Sol ECU, if you want to go all out on an ECU that can live on vicariously through your progression of Honda tuning, get the Hondata ECU... Oh yeah, and a note from Beta_Wolf, "GET A B18!!! >=)"... He's crazy, he'll swap a B18 into anything... alpha_wolf out.

I have read this whole section and i did not see anything about doing a b18a swap in the civic is it possible and how hard would it be?
