Easy, u could find what engine an EX has in it on almost any car site.

The 96-00 EX has the D16Z7 SOHC engine rated at 127 hp and 107 lb-ft tq

What can I do to tighten a d16y8...or isn't worth building. It doesn't see worth building the 2.2 in my 94 Accord LX (its auto anyway). Are you better off w/ b-series in a Civic?
