its not goin to be easy/straight forward. the wiring ecu will be the problem.

d16y1 = sohc vtec OBD1

and

d16y4 = sohc non vtec OBD2

and its illegal anyways, the y1 is older than the ek chassis. your not allowed to put an old engine in a newer car.

for a cheap swap buy a d16y8 out of a ek vti.

a d16y1 came out of an old model civic... you can't put a motor from an older model into a newer one... so if you wanted to swap.. you'd have to put in another d16y4 if you wanted to keep it SOHC...

or any other engine that was brought out in 1996 or later...

thanxs guys will do find another engine

if it was brought out then... it wouldn't be a d16y1... it would be a d16y8... so that would be a great swap!! more power but could be issues with wiring up the v-tec... not exactly a ecu plau and play swap unfortunately

[filoaccord]

man didnt see that. the guy said it was removed from a 99 vti ill contact him
