I was wondering if it is possible to swap a b16 or b18 motor into a new civic, and if you could is there a lot of modifications that needs to be done?

which new civic are you referring to?

it's possbile for the 2000 and down model, not the 2001 and up because it's not leagal to have a engine older than your car.

And they've totally redesigned the new civic. I'm 75% sure you could do an RSX, 02 CRV or 02 Civic Si engine swap.

yeah, it is very possible to do a swap in a 2000 or older civic. not much will need to be done if you know what youre doing. vtec will have to be wired(if you go vtec) and five speed swap if you are auto right now.
