how much does a D15B2 weigh?

Can I pull and place it by hand(with help) or do I really need a lift/comealong?

due no you dont. A d15b3 with or without the tranny weights no more than 350lbs. tops! So im sure if you had like 4 friends holding it up and you putting the bolts in it can be done.....

Get like a metal fencepost and tie some ropes around the engine and hang it from that.

Or you could always jack the car up high and then drop the body on it.---thats what i did with my integra. Worked fine, just watch out for suspension and motor mounts go on last.

^^^agreed it can be done, but a cherry picker makes it so much easyer
