B series motor help
well i'm wantin to rebuild a motor so i can put it into an older civic or integra later this year. And i found a B16 block from a 95 del sol. the block has all the internal parts Crankshaft, bearings, pistons, rods, oil pan, so i bid on that block on ebay. and i was curious what else do i need to make the whole motor ... just a head right and valve cover. along with ecu, axles, motor mounts, wiring.

you will need the head/valve cover, ecu, motor mounts, wiring, TRANSMISSION!, and maybe some other parts like the intake and exhaust manifolds, fluid reseviors, etc. You may or may not need the axles, depending on what type of car you drop it into. If you are just making the engine, then all you should need is the block and the head, but that doesn't mean it will run. Is it a B16A3?

Rep Power: 412 That would require mad work. Port, polish will help. You would want some better vavles and springs, and change the compression. If you are going turbo, talk to catalyst or boosted2k2 for info on how to change your motor to handle more boost. Or get honda-tech.com they should help you better.
If you building then you want
1) Pistons
2) Rods
3) Sleved block
4) Balanced crank shaft
5) Valves
6) Valve springs, retainers
7) Ignition system
8) Cam Shafts
9) Pullys
10) Cam Gears
11) ECU
12) Fuel Rail
13) Fuel pressure regulator
14) More stuff I cant think of
Good luck
