Hi does any one know this this engine would fit into my 216 ok ebay number 270350081431, i am thinking the main problems would be with the wiring loom, though i honestly have no idea.

there are mounting kits available to convert D16 to B16.
Since the 2nd gen CRX and the Mk2 Rover 200 are both based on the 4th Gen Civic platform I can't see anything else being required that couldn't come from a donor car like that, except perhaps the need for an exhaust.

Nice work, how long did it take you, my engine is passed better days, i wondering if to just slap the twin cam engine in or go a bit fancy, i take it putting a t16 in would take even longer because its a totally differnt engine
