I really doubt it. Your going from a stock engine to a DX/LX engine. That's about it. The OBD is the same, both are non-vtec, both are SOHC. D15B8
Model: 1992-95 Civic CX
Specs.: 1493cc, 8 valve SOHC, 9.1:1 compression
Power: 70 bhp @ 4,500 rpm
Torque: 83 ft.-lbs. @ 3,000 rpm
Redline: 6,500 rpm
D15B7
Model: 1992-95 Civic DX/LX
Specs.: 1493cc, 16 valve SOHC, 9.2:1 compression
Power: 102 bhp @ 5,900 rpm
Torque: 98 ft.-lbs. @ 5,000 rpm
Redline: 6,800 rpm

What other kind of info are you looking for?

the swap was already made. it looks like everything is ok but i think there is something wrong with it. the rpm has to be above 1.0 wich is not normal and there is a strange smell coming from the mufller. there was no modifications made during the swap. do u think any modifications have to be made?? what about the wiring?
thanks

humm.. strange smell like oil?

higher rev to compensate for low compression due to worn out rings.. ? humm

compression test time!

no. it doesnt smell like oil. it smels like a different kind of gas(something like that). what do u think i can do?
thanks

do u think i have to keep the computer from the cx model or get another computer?? if so what kind of computer??
