Hi guys, new to the sight! I like it
I'm just trying to get a little insight on, like the title says, swapping a 96-98 b18c engine into my 98 civic to replace the d16y8
Now I know basically what is needed for the swap, however, I think I sould try to clear some things up here.
First, I think I might attempt to do the swap myself (me and another techy)
1. Apart from the engine, ecu, lsd tranny, wiring harness, shift linkage, and the mounts that come with it...what else would I need? (A/C is not needed right away so I don't need the del sol bracket)
2. I am fairly handy but I'm no mechanic here. Do you think we can perform this operation on our own??
3. I am aware that the swap is a bolt in and have done research on the topic but would like to know if there are any other little troubles becides converting your wiring harness??
4. What exact mounts do I need in order to complete the swap??
Sorry this is probibly kicking the cat around here but your opinions and answers would be greatly appriciated
Thanks guys
Matt
