my civic's overheating more often. At this time, I'm left with the cheapest route if I want VTEC ... D16Y8 motor. I'm researching, though have lotsa questions.
1Are junkyards a reliable source for a motor or where else should I look?
2What's involved in wiring & ecu ... are these tough to do for an electrical novice?
3I know transmission is the same as the EX, will it matter to california smog/ref?
4So key hings I'll want are the EX p2p ecu, distributer/intake/exhaust manifolds etc, & need to use a new water pump & timebelt an aftermarket exhaust & cat ... Am I forgetting anything else?
thanx
