im sure there are aftermarket mounts for your old crx.... i havent looked into it personally but im willing to bet Hasport makes some. put a b series in that little suckers, even a b18a or b18b would be quick and they are cheap.

B series needs $600 mounts from HA sport.
A D16A1 from a 1986-1989 will drop right in. (88-89 require some wiring modification). You can also find a ZC which is essentially the same motor as the D16A1. Japan Motor Import - JDM Parts and Engines had one

you can fit B,D, F and K series engine the next question will be is how much are you willing to spend? what are your limitations? once you answer that then you can have a more targeted answer. Also keep in mind you have three general choices when it comes to swap : Speed, Reliability, Price you can only choose 2.

Hf's a carbed engine. find you a dual carbed , DOHC ZC on ebay and go from there. You should also check out Red Pepper Racing web forum as to. They have everything youre looking for there. They dedicated to the 84-87 Crx and the civic.
