Question about b18a swap into 94 dx

[lohonda]

My friend is thinking of buying a b18a (93 integra LS) engine and he was wondering if he can use the 93 integra axles. I heard that they are shorter is this true?
Also what mounts will he need. The engine he is thinking of buying doesn't come with mounts. I remember it used to be posted on here but I can't find it.
Also the engine should just bolt up and plug in right? Should the integra shift linkage and transmission work?

Thanks

the OBD is correct
but...
im pretty sure the axles are a little too short
the tranny is all wrong (its cable opperated... his car is setup for a hydro tranny)
not sure on the linkage
he will need 3rd gen integra mounts

basicly its gunna be a pain in the ass

you would be better off getting a b18b...its got the hydro tranny and the OBD would match..good luck on the swap its what I have in mine.
