hi i know that this should be in the wtb part but they dont get looked at as much as these one will.
i have a 85 crx si it leaks oil its a 5spd, as of right now it runs like shit as in it dont run at all im personally really pissed and my opion of honda isnt very high right now because i paid 800 for a car that only ran for 3 weeks and i used it for 2 becasue the cross member broke on me and got fixed which took a week, i had a toyota and it rans better than my honda, but ill give honda another chance.
im looking for a engine for the 85 si crx that will not need any mods to the mounts or harness so basically im looking for a engine that will just bolt into a 85 si and run.
what motors can just bolt in?
thanx
PS: im looking for a dirt cheap price and i live in susquehanna PA so closer the better so i can pick it up.

Any CRX Si motor from 85-87 would work. You might have to switch out the ECU if you use an 86-87 motor.

edit: You'll probably be able to find a complete motor with about 150k miles for about $200 if not less.

And to add, the terribly condition of your engine has nothing to do with the incapability of Honda, but has everything to do with a cruel and lousy driver.

Like any other engine, it has to warm up before you put the pedal to the metal.

Your pissed at Honda for a 20 year old engine that finally died............

D16A1, ZC, Browntop is your best bet.

$150 gets you the motor, $75 the transmission.
