Default Calling Honda Heads!!! Help!

Hey guys. Im in a bit of a bind. I have a 1986 honda accord with a blown motor that i need to swap. i need some assitance. Dont want to take it to a shop, i dont have the money. Basically i plan on doing the swap myself but since i havent done one alone i need all the help i can get. It doesnt have to be pretty, it just has to run. its just temp until i can get Z into the shop and running again. Anyone that is willing to lend a hand i would greatly appreciate it. I dont have alot of money. To be honest the most i can offer you is a little cash and a case of beer. Also if anyone know of a cheap high milage D series i can use for the swap, please let me know. Pm for any questions.

Thanks

The money you are going to spend trying to get this to run. It won't be worth it. Buy a DD civic for $600-$700. Because you will have every bit of that in parts, probably even more.

Yeah, you fucking wish you could put a D series in there.

A series only bud, and its prob carbed making the swap one of the most annoying you could ever attempt.

I say attempt because most people don't 100% succeed, they just finally get it close enough to run.

Take it to the junkyard...and buy a new car. Not worth fixing.
