Civic Engine Swap? Need help choosing!
Just purchased a 97 civic with high miles. The motor is about wasted so i need to look into getting a new one. I would like to get a more powerful one but reliability is the most important. So i was thinking a stock used motor from a junkyard or online store. Im not that familiar with what motors fit in what cars and what is involved. I need suggestions for a cheap motor swap for something that is better than the original motor. Thanks for the help!
