Well if your doing the swap by yourself and you have never done one before there might be some challenges.....you will need the jumper harness to convert the obd2 to obd1.....you also will need the engine harness with the new motor....obd 2 non vtec harness WILL NOT WORK for the gsr trust me Ive tried it....size issues you have no problem...b series will all fit in the EJ1 I have one and know this for a fact...I strongly advise that you switch to the gsr hydro tranny instead of keeping the LS tranny...GSr has shorter gear ratios and better acceleration...when you are doing the swap SAVE everything...mounts brackets etc. Because you never know what might go wrong...make sure the GSr is complete dizzy and everything its a pain in the *** trying to find good used dizzy's or alternators...other than the OBD issues there isnt much else you have to worry about if you knwo your way around a car
