Hello everyone:

I have an eg hatch, i've been doing some research on motor swaps, and i've decided to go with the b18b.. i have a few questions:

http://www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/sc...age&item=30007
http://www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/sc...age&item=30023

whats the difference between the above long blocks?
is it just that one is OBD II and the other OBDI and, the valve cover looks a little bit different?
can you do ls/vtec on the older one?

I'm leaning towards the older one (94-95)
here's a list of items i think i need to make the swap complete:

P74 ecu
b-series tranny & shift linkage
axles
i can use my mounts and wiring(right?)

what else am i gonna need?

thanks!

Well the first one you have is not a longblock,its a complete change over.The second one is a obd1 longblock.To make it an easy swap,i would go with the 94-95 since you have a eg hatch which is obd1.Your also going to need some mounts,im not sure of the different combonation of stock mounts for eg.Also you CAN do LS-VTEC on either one.
