Is it possible to swap a Honda CRX Si engine into a CRX DX body?

I found a Honda CRX Dx for sale near me, but the DX has a pretty miserable engine, all things considered. However, someone else is selling an engine from a wrecked CRX Si model, and I figured if I bought the DX, I could just swap out the engines and have an 89 CRX with a 91 Si engine.

Is there anything that would prevent that from working? For example, the engines not being the same size, or the Si engine needing extra parts that wouldn't come with a stock Dx model.

Please keep in mind this would be a major undertaking for me, but I have a friend who does a bit of work on cars, and he was planning on helping me.

Thank you!
 
i recon it should be a drop in taking the wiring and transmission are the same setup,if not your doing something to one of the most modifiable vehicles on this planet,look around on the internet i bet you find lots of info on this and proly somethin to make faster also
