HI this is my first post ever. STPAUL MN REPPIN
I have an 86 integra with the d16a1 motor and 4 speed auto tranny. I also have a 88 civic dx hatchback with the d15XX motor and 4 speed manual tranny. I would like to do the swap beacause the integra motor is older but has less miles(d16a1=at 140,000) (d15XX=at 202,000) and more power than my civic motor. Would it be possible to do a swap with out buying a mount kit because I can not find any d16a1 mount kits. Once I know what to do to get the swap done then I can do other simple mods such as intake exhaust and ECU, maybe also use the best parts for those. I am truly a beginner at all of this but If someone can help me with the right route to take I would gratly appreciate the help. .................................................................
