whats up guys, i have a 89 civic dx hb that has a b18a1 in but spun rod bearing so after consideration i bought a b16a long block from hmotorsonline because the b18a already had a b16 tranny so my question is
is it any thing else i need for this swap to go right i already bought the dizzy and pr3 ecu so is this plug and play except from wiring vtec also can somone tell me where the knock sensor is on this thing i have been looking and i think i am looking over it pics of it would be great thanks. P.S. LS/VTEC is coming
 
should be on the back of the motor above the oil filter, and below the intake manifold

your going to need to use the bracket just under the cam gears off the b18 that goes to from the motor mount to the block. the b16 should be different
