Re: confusion
When Honda people call cars by their chassis codes they generally use the Japanese-market chassis codes for whatever reason.
No US-market '88-'91 Civics actually had an EF chassis code.

Re: confusion
Short answer: Don't pay any attention to those idiots.
Long answer: They probably went to the trouble to look up the chassis code in Japan for whatever motor swap they have.
The number could indicate an engine, trim package, or bodystyle. You've got a number after ED, too.
