Default Motor swap

Hey, i have a 97 ex and i want to swap the motor. I'm thinking of just doing a full GSR swap. I've done alot of research and im still wondering about what parts will be needed to complete the swap. If anyone has a detailed list of all the parts needed for a b18 swap (minus motor and trans) please let me knowq

motor, trans, Si mounts and axles, Si shift linkage or mod the existing shift linkage. What year motor are you using? I can tell you what you need to do to the harness.

You will want to use a obd1 b18c1 with a p72 ecu. An obd2 motor would be easier but the obd1 p72 is superior.
