soo,,,it's a straightforward swap.. as far as mounting the engine and such.. the troubles with it is the wiring and fact that it's very illegal...
B series engines can easily fit into our engine bays..new mounts would have to be fabricated or modified no biggie for any decent shop to do...but the whole engine system will need to be rewired...

It's illegal to put an older engine into a newer car..the last USDM model year for the B16 was 2000... for us with 2k1 Civics a B18C1 swap from a 2001 Integra is legal [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG][hr]

I was just messing around. If I did have the money I would, just because the fact I would become a celebrity just like Htown did. I rather just save up and get an Integra GSR. Of course there are those who would say like get an LS and swap it.
