Now I think I have everthing. :wacko:
What I have:
Mechanical ability, complete obd2 B18C1 swap (wiring harness, all mounts, hacked obd1 ecu, axles and basically everything out of the integra's engine compartment... hell, I even have the a/c parts).
The one thing I dont have is the experience of doing this before. I have swapped plenty of old domestic v8's but nothing along these lines. Question I have is what should I expect? Is there anything going to jump up and bite me in the ass? One thing Im worried about is the cat lining up and mating with the stock header from the B18.
I was planning on kicking it off tomorrow but I stumbled across a thread where people were describing their swaps times and it scared me off a bit. Guys talking in terms of days and weeks is something I don't go through. I figure I could have the motor out pretty quickly (been told the best way is to pull the car off the engine). But I just dont want to hit a snag that I cant fix in my shop on Sunday (if you get me).
Still researching and actually putting new CV boots on the axles in about 5 mins. So I am almost ready but dont want to be left on foot if something unforeseen pops up.
Thanks for any help/advice.
