Thinking about swapping a d15z1 motor to get some much needed HP, A/C and maybe some more MPG's.

I used to live in Williamsburg VA and drove my current 98 Civic (without A/C) while I lived there. I sympathize with the A/C desire. But though you might get more HP and A/C from the swap, I doubt that it will mean more MPG. It will probably mean noticeably less MPG. Some of the low-power feeling is from gearing probably. The final drive on the HF was even taller than the later VX and HX models. It's a sweet car you have. Despite the heat there in South Eastern VA, I would keep it as is and simply aeromod it.
