replace motor question
I pulled the head after my timing belt broke and it turns out piston 3 is shattered and the valves are gone. So I got another motor, same engine code D16A6, for cheap w/out tranny. I want to know if I could do the swap without removine the tranny from the engine bay. I was thinking it would be alot easier if I didn't have to deal with removing the axles, shift linkage and stuff like that. Thanks!

Take everything out. It takes about 30 minutes for a newb to disassemble each side of a Honda; just be careful not to mushroom your ballpoints. You'll save yourself a ton of time and headache by taking out the whole assembly. Just treat the car like a Lego set and you'll be fine.
