By a complex process that boils down to burning gasoline.:chuckles:

....del Sol engines are a drop-in replacement for "normal" D series engines. Nothing special, just a cheap and easy replacement for a worn out or blown stock engine.

Nope, the only impressive del Sol engine swap into a CRX would be from the del Sol VTEC, a run-of-the-mill B16A.

oh its its a PITA when u don't know u have this engine and need to find a starter for it, and U don't know why it isnt working, spent a good week with that problem to find out its a 1.5 del sol engine, now its a 1.6 del sol engine, (well the del sol's are good for something)
