However... after it ran for about 5 minutes smoke started coming out from the front of the engine. I couldn't pin down the exact location it was coming from, but it seemed like the headers. Also the engine was really hot even though it was only running for 5 min..
It has coolant and everything...
Found the problem today.. ground #101 wasn't attached to anything.
:doh:
As soon as that was connected it started right up. Thanks anyway man, the car's fine i'm just an idiot!
Heya, anyone know what kind of distributor cap and rotor to get for a 2nd gen DOHC zc? Also, can the dizzy from an 88 teg fit onto it? I'm getting absolutely no spark out of the thing and i'm trying to eliminate the obvious...
The starter cranks the engine just fine, but its just not going...
Nope.. not without fabrication at least. I just tried that swap and the driver's side mount doesn't match up.
I'd say drop some coin for a black top (2nd gen) civic ZC. They're hella cheaper than B's and you still get a kick in the ass when you mash the accelerator. Or the SOHC VTEC zc. I...

ZC it is! I found one on ebay motors for $550 :D
Heh, thats the same reason i'm not putting a ZC in. My integra's suspension borked and my friend just happened to have a CRX with a blown engine. Maybe one of these days we'll afford our ZCs.
My fingers are still crossed on the current swap. I'm taking the integra's engine out tomorrow when my...
Ja, I looked a lil closer today and took measurements of the engine bay and the placements of the mounts, my darkest fears confirmed... no simple bolt in swap for me. :cockblocked:
Anyway. Have you found a way to get yours to mount up? Or have you gotten that far yet? I think the ignition...
Last saturday my 88 teg's well-worn suspension finally gave out with a grand finale of two ball joints and a shock tower breaking all at once.. so rather than spend the $$$ fixing the thing i'm contemplating taking the D16AWhatever from the integra and lowering the sucka into an 88 CRX Si.
The...
