Exclamation First swap, plz help

Im doing my first motor swap on a honda.

i have a perfectly running 1995 acura integra ls 5speed with a b18b1. i want to take the motor and tranny out and put it in a civic shell. either a late 90's hatch. or a 5th gen civic coupe, or hatch.
shell meaning, gutted, nothing on or in it, i want to build it from ground up.

with that said, when taking the motor out of the acura what all do i need to remove for this job.

thanks for viewing, and please be patient like i said this is my first time

thanks again. austin

This isn't a swap, it's a custom install. if your throwing it into a shell you will need the wiring harness etc, but there's no reason you couldn't just use all the stuff from the integra engine. Although, I would rather use a Legend engine, more cylenders, more HP.

Acura is Honda, don't forget that.
