91 Auto Si 1.6L Idea
ok me and my friend have both swapped our engines, mine the auto 1.5, and my friends the manual 1.6 si.
we were wondering, if we take his si head and mate it to my very underabused dx block, and make an auto si. i think it would work.

It could be done... would be just like a mini-me right? But since the Si head is MPFI, you'd have to use an auto ECU from a Civic EX, right? Oh well, maybe I'm wrong, but who knows...

it can be done but is a waste of time. techinically, the Si head doesn't have MPFI. it's the intake mani. so if you want a gain get the si intake mani and pm6 ecu....but good luck finding an AT pm6
![]() the dx and si head are 99% identical. the si has a slightly more aggressive cam grind...but not really much to matter. we have a few blocks and head laying around...played around with a few. have swapped them around and found no real HP gain or loss. it's all in the MPFI

Swap
I wouldn't really mess with swapping the head as much as i would do the MPFI swap. If you wanted to have fun you could throw a VTEC head on there and drive to Walmart faster than you could before.
