To swap an engine I would think you need:
-Engine hoist
-Set of sockets/screwdrivers/wrenches
-Engine stand (Depending if you are taking out the other engine)
-Haynes manual

If you are talking what specific parts you need for the engine to fit in a crx I have no idea.:dunno:

Haha, have fun doing a swap with just sockets and wrenches. You will need a impact gun for sure.

The best advice I can give you is to do some research. I dont want to sound like the guys at Honda-Tech, but you will be suprised on how much info you can get when doing a quick search.

You will need motor mounts for sure, Axles and shift linkage from a Integra, OBD0-OBD1 Conversion Harness, etc

Since when do you need an impact? I've done countless swaps without...

he doesn't necessarly need an 0bd0.obd1 harness if he picks up a 90-91 b18a that is obd0 already.

His car is over 15 years old, bolts and nuts seeze up pretty good. Things like Hub nuts, rear motor mount, etc would be a pain in the ass without a impact. Sure its possible to do a swap without one, but thats way to ghetto for me. How are you going to get a large snipe to tighten up the rear motor mount properly?

Good point! I was thinking of B18B's. If it was me, I would get the newest engine I could possible find for the swap. Typically, new engines = lower mileage and in better overall condition.
