Question Engine Swap on a DX

Hey forum, I gotta question for the civic experts.
Is it possible to do an engine swap in a 1999 Honda Civic DX Sedan. I always see Coupe EX's with engine swaps but can I do it with my civic?

If so, what engine can I swap in? And whats the cost?

And one more question is how hard is it to put fog lights into my DX. Because stock there are no fog lights nor enclosures so I would have to make my own, and I have looked for like tutorials and I can't find anything, only like before and after pictures.

Installing for lights is simple, just order a set off ebay.

Yes, you can swap an engine into a sedan.

Thanks for the quick reply

I wouldn't have to whip out a dremel or something and cut holes?

And what engine can I swap in?

Yup, just bust out the dremmel for the holes. I swear, I use that thing as much as my socket set.

You can swap in almost any engine, that's just a matter of budget, look at the stickies in 6th gen swaps and forced induction.
