Now I have been considering doing an engine swap on my 98 Civic. Is it that much of a hassle. Does it pretty much fit in place or do i have some modifications to fix. H22avid...you were saying there was a problem with the OBD...explain that to me if ya can on what I owuld have to do with that. I figured...instead of spending money on a turbo...get an engine that pushes as much power as my engine prolly would WITH a turbo :-\ Thanks for any replies..

That was for the 4G civic (pre 1992) which is ODB. With yours it is a 6G and you would basically revert from OBDII to OBDI shich is pretty simple from what I've heard. You would need the OBDI motor and ecu and a OBDII to OBDI conversion harness from hasport unless you just get an OBDII H22 which are harder to come by.

for the 90-93 swap there are no custome mounts needed you use all accord mounts and brackets.

I thought you needed to shave the Prelude driver side mount to make it fit, but you use only the Accord mounts?

Then what about the 90-93? You just use the Accord mounts? I have a 92 EX and am curious about the possibilities...
