well first of all you are in the wrong place you should in hybird tech. yes you can put a del sol motor in a 91 civic with a cable tranny crx. but the right way would be running obd1 wire harness. if not he ------ rig the disturber on the head. the way you can tell if it has vtec if there a vtec soldnor behind the head next to the disturber. it should be connect with a green connector. if it has it then vtec should be control be rpm activator or vafc. check those things

also check the engine code# it is between the tranny and exhaust header on the front of the block on a flate plate.
it should read d16z6, if it says d16a6 then its the stock Si motor.

in ordeer for it to be a del Sol SI it has to either have the D16Z6 or the D16Y8. If its a D16a6 its a del Sol S SOHC non-VTEC.
