Thank God I found this post on here... I'm about to do a b18b with an ls granny swap on my 97 em hatch..
This weekend. I picked up motor from some kick who was getting rid of it on Craigslist.. pick up the complete swap for only 650.. tranny, wiring harness, ecu, pretty much everything I need to drop it in my ek..
I'm a graphic designer, not much of a mechanic so I have not clue wat I got my self into when I picked up this motor last week.. but I kinda wanted to just make sure that I would be able to put the b18b into my car.. I started looking thru forums just to double check, and thank God I found this post..
I'm about to do the swap this weekend, not realizing that it doesn't bolt right in like the kid said..
So now I'm hunting down all the parts that where mentioned.on here to make this swap happen smoothley. I hope things go well cuz I depend on my Car to get to work every day. Pretty much drive 60 miles a day from one side of town to the other.. I live in Phoenix AZ where its hella hot during the summer.. I I'm trying to find the bracket I need to get my a/c running as well.
The only thing I'm little confused on is the wiring harness issues that I'm going to run into..
Thank God I'm not doing the infallible my self.. lol have some friends doing the whole thing for me.. so i hope I they can pull it off.. but if we do run into some issues ill probably be back on here trying to figure things put if things start going bad.. which I hope doesn't happens... but will...
So wish me luck..
Mad love, for this post U put up bfraley
