Civic DX engine swap help

The engine in my Honda Civic Dx special ed. overheated due to a cracked
head gasket, and I'm faced with replacing the engine. I thought maybe
now is a good time to get an upgrade engine, but being largely
uneducated on the subject, I decided to look for some advice as to what
engines are available, and at what aproximate cost. Can engines like
the one in the integra or the civic si fit in the Dx? What is the
quality of the JDM engines compared to other engines by Honda? If
anybody has any advice, hints, or tips, please let me know! Thanks.

What year is your Civic DX?

dunno where ya live, but if you did a swap like that in california,
youre pretty much relegated to having "under the table" smog checks done
for the life of the vehicle. at about $250/each, every 2 years. if you
can find a place thatll risk their smog license to do it. not trying to
**** on your parade- just trying to remind some folks that life isnt
always fast and furious

I've got a '95 coup. I also live in Ontario, so emissions shouldn't be
much of a problem. My mechanic sais he'd have to replace the computer
as well, but would that have to be done with any engine, or just some?

Hello how are you doing. There are plenty of engine available for your
vehicle. You can either choose to replace it with an standard
replacement engine which would be similiar to the one you have right
now. Or, you can go with a high performance b16a or b18c engine which
comes with more horsepower and torque then then stock. Both engines can
be used in your vehicle for daily driving purposes. If you have any
questions regarding the replacement of your civic engine check out the
link below and e-mail us with more specific details on what exactly you
want from your car. Hope I was of assistance to you. Thank You.
