blew my stock b18a1 in my 90 integra gs a/t, now I found this engine in my buddy's accord he was usin to race...from the looks of it it's a d-16, but he said it was from an 89 prelude, which from what I've been told will fit...but I wanna take everything and do an auto/man conversion using all the stuff from this other car(axles are new, 5-speed tranny good, just needs clutch)...including the shifter and the pedal assembly, and ecu...
Now I don't wanna even attempt this if it's gonna cost me more than about 200 in other parts, machine-work, etc. so will this work? This isn't a performance swap, it's a desparation swap just because my integra has a perfect body, more new parts outside the engine than any car I've owned and maintained and I just don't wanna sell it(best offer I got was 300).
Other questions...
If this will work, are there any parts I can take from my b18a1(throttle body, intake, water pump, timing belt which are all new in my teg)? I'll try and determine exactly what engine and tranny but I just got this news and I didn't wanna jump into something not even possible. I'm already gettin way too excited, I've wanted to do something like this since I got the car. Thanks for any help, violently angry criticism is comforting to me so don't hold back.
