Check out the civic swapping guide at the top of the 92+ civic forum. It's got information on most swaps for civics and integras.

What your tellin me is the only thing that I can reuse is the wire harness? what do you mean by change your longblocks your tranny? Are you sayin change my tranny mounts? Also can use some of the same parts from my 91 acura... clutch? (ACT 6puck street/strip) DC sport headers? MSD ignition system? Thermal exhaust stainless cat-back?

Ps. What about my ecu?? -or- Vtec hook-up

THANKS FOR THE :2cents: I REALLY APPRECIATE IT GUYS !!!!

all you would need to buy would be the head of the b16 and a new ecu, then you will have an LS/Vtec everyone loves, unless your bottom end is messed up.

after swapping the heads, you just need to run 4 wires to your ecu to activate vtec.

you can keep your harness, engine mounts, linkage, etc.

You can use all the parts of your car now. just change the motors. clutch yes
msd yes
plug wires yes
etc etc
as for vtec you'll need to use pr3 or pw0 ecu and need to wire in vtec wires. Or you can use an msd rpm activator to activate vtec
