ED/EF Engine Swap Guide

[bennjamin]

is it possible to put a d16a8 into a ED for under $2000?
i need to no exactly everything i will need as in not the extras just the bare essential to get the car running.

i have a rough idea on the cost of the motor but i dont no much bout converting to EFI wat will i need and how much?

cheers jord


anyone who is willing to help me in any way add me to msn offthe_edge@hotmail.com

I think a more realistic number will be about $2500 or 3k - that is with abit of DIY cutting the costs down. You need the EFI tank , lines , loom , ECU etc etc - you can pick up a d16a8 out of a 2nd gen CRX or a later Si EG for about $1k with most of the engine bay...




offtopic but if u need a hookup for that engine let me know.

i live in hobart which could be a problem it is either going to cost me a fortune cos of the low number of ppl attempting it down here or really cheap if i can find a contact.

Hi guys i need a helping hand with my wiring
im being asked the question is my CRX
DPFI(Dual Point Fuel Injection) to MPFI(Multi Point Fuel Injection) ?

[trism]

Did the original motor have 2 or 4 injectors on it?

2 is DPFI and 4 is MPFI

[Snoop_gee]

the motor was a d16a8.
I think i remember seeing MPFI on the manifold now that i come to think of it
