K-swapping my 98 civic with d16y8. Is it worth it?

Im a 17 year old kid who just blew up his d16y8 motor. I have access to a k-swapped motor but i dont know if its worth the time and money. I have no idea if its gonna work in my car or not. I got a ex 98 civic. Does anyone have any advice or any ideas?

It's a lot more than just an engine. There are lots of threads on K swapping 6th gens.

You're better off just finding another D16.
