If you don't know much about engines, or what you're going.. hand it over to a mechanic.

You'll be much happier with the results.

There are a few walk-throughs to help you.

as you can see she fits in beautifully. no real drama to have it registered as teh stock AUSDM CRX si comes as a 1.6 (d16a8) so to have it converted to vtec b16a there is no drama to include P/S some do say it rubs a lil on teh ribs of teh bonnet but that can be fixed!

with 1 of 2 ways
1) lift kit washers and raise the latches to accomdate the rise in teh engine.
or
2) cut the ribs your call....
