I have an 89 CRX. I want to put a new motor in it. What is the best and how hard would it be.

Sell your auto, buy a manual. After $300-$500 in parts and a shitload of time you have a car that you could have had much easier and cheaper buy just selling the car you have and getting a 5 speed. And as for swap value I would do a b18a into your rex, if you look around at junkyards you may get a full swap for $500 or less. Add $350 for motor mounts and shift linkage (ebay) and you have a crx with around 135 hp and 125 tq (I think). Thats at the flywheel ofcourse. Then you can decide if you want to turbo it or maybe do ls/vtec. Do a search and you will find alot of info on this topic. Good luck
