CVCC engine options.

You'll get into cutting the car up under the hood to get anything other than the 83 and older engine in there. You'll be hacking and reforming and modding fenders and all that. The quickest, easiest, painless swap to do is what I did. It isn't, by far, the most HP, but there are no mods to be done at all. Later, QD.

So the motor that I posted a picture up out of the 83 Civic will work with no modifications? I don't care about the power as much as I do keeping the car in tact. I am assuming that the 5 speed tranny from the 79 will bolt up to that motor?

You are not listening to me BUG. I told you where to post your inquiries. There are still minor things that you need to change even when it's considered "drop in".

[BUGMAN]

I listened and already there. Also in 10 other places and talking to several people that have done it a few times. Just looking for all the info I can get.

What, you think I am too old to learn this much?

Yes. That engine will go in with NO mods. And it will bolt up to the factory 5 speed. But the engine HAS to be a 1500 and not a 1300. That's where the block number comes into play. My swap had a minor mod done to it as in having the alternator bracket grind down to fit it properly next to the engine block. Later, QD.

I will hang it in the air today and find every number on it!
