Hi there. I am just about to purchase a B16b to install in my ukdm mk2 crx vtec. My car is running pretty well at the moment but it was too good an opportunity to pass up. The engine is the only thing that I'll be getting (well, with the inlet) but no, dizzy or ecu or loom.
I understand that the mounts will be the same. I will have to use my b16a dizzy to prevent obd conflict (I'm planning on running it with my obd0). I have also been told that I may have to use my b16a inlet and t/b for the same obd reasons (the map sensor is different?). I will have to use a b18c5 cam belt when I put it on due to the different size of the b16b (7mm higher and 7mm lower I believe). I'm hoping I can use my supersprint manifold without it contacting the bottom of the block. I have a lsd gearbox from an sir that has had the vss replaced for one from a vtec gearbox so that should work fine with my driveshafts and speedo. I have a new exedy organic clutch that I bought before I decided to buy the b16b. Will this fit the new engine/gearbox combo?
I have been reading everything I can find on b16b swaps but haven't come across the b16b into EE8 swap. Can anyone shed some light/confirm or deny any or all of the above/recommend any sites or reading material?
I am keen to find out if anyone is running obd0 with a b16b and if so, do they have a bigger intake/injectors etc? Is anything out of the ordinary?
If all goes well, I'm hoping to borrow a digital camera and post up a "how to" for the full swap and setup. We'll need to see how it goes
p.s. sorry if anyone reads this post on other forums (I'm looking for advice from anyone who has more idea than me (that'll be most of you then ))
