Default Comparing LX engine to Sol S

I'm trying to compare my friend's engine in her 1995 Civic 4 Door LX and a 93 Del Sol S.. Can someone post specs on both engines?? THANKS


edit: and who would win between a stock Civic LX and a stock Del Sol S


It looks like they got the same engine but I'm not sure...

and if you guys know what both these cars do in the 1/4 mile stock, that'd be great too...

both cars have a 102 hp D15. In manual transmission form, the Lx weighs 2376 lbs, while the Del Sol weighs 2277 lbs. If they are both manual, the Del Sol should slightly edge the LX. If one of them is an automatic, its a totally different game.

the del sol is gonna win in this case. The civic has 2 strikes against it (1. its an auto and 2. its heavier)

civic is completely stock... Del Sol has a weld on muffler (not catback) and those 17" Chrome Lexani rims, looks pretty heavy... will the heavy rims be enough to overcome the automatic in the civic + weight of civic?
