OK, assuming you are true to your handle in that you have an '89 Civic/CRX, what do you want to upgrade to? A basic D16Z6 or Y8 swap is going to be much easier and cheaper then a B-series upgrade.

Regardless, hmotorsonlne.com is a good company. I have yet to hear one complaint about them.

Yes, the D15B is SOHC VTEC and will "bolt up" with a "new" distributor, injectors, and minor wiring modifications. It sounds like SunsetLude is offering a D16A1, and that is of no use to you (unless he chimes in and says D16A7 or D16A8, which are basically blacktop ZC's by a different name.)

Your best bet for an upgrade and easy fitting engine is a blacktop ZC. The longblock (complete engine, manifolds, distributor, alternator) is availible from hmotorsonline here:

well thnx
some d series models have vtec not all though,it will bolt up and yes you can use you si tranny,if you do get a vtec motor you need to run 2 new wires for it to work.
