I've been lurking a long time but can't find this specific answer(yes, I know its around somewhere, sorry!)
My 98LX d16y7 auto died almost a year ago, and I finally found andbolted in a complete d16y8 engine from a 97 dx auto.
I want to run it as is for the moment to make sure the engine isgood and because I'm sick of walking past my disabled civic every day for a year (say what you will but 96-2000 are ugly).
I know I need to do some wiring/change ECU for the vtech towork, but for the time being what issues will I run into doing:
97 dx auto y8 block+intake + 98 lx auto y7 wireharness + exhaust
Any advice/info/links/walkthroughs would be greatly appreciated.
