try bringing a leakdown tester , and a tire pump. they usually remove the battery and drained the fuel tank before they put it in the yard, so compression test is not gonna happen.

d16a1 will go in but its not worth the effort and if you use a sohc tranny its even more work and even less worth it. i put one in a crx a few years ago. if you are looking for a simple swap then stay single cam
