as far as i know the del sol uses the suspension of the civic.

now i take it the suspension changed for the del sol in 96 when the 6th gen civic's came out.

as for putting an engine in the rear of the car. sounds like fun. if you think making it tube frame in the back isn't expensive go for it. if you get can it to pass state inspection and so forth even better.

i'd put an engine in the back of a del sol if i knew how to weld. and had a madrel bending machine at home .
