del sol b series linkage. everything else should bolt right in. and you may not be able to use the ac bracket.

You didn't specify so, B series tranny (in case you don't have one)
Shift linkage from a del sol VTEC model, not an SI, an actual VTEC model
Axles and half shaft from a B series motor/tranny OBDI or newer
B16 ECU
It is recommended that you use B series mounts
B16 Throttle cable
The harnesses will clip in fine I think, I am not positive on an OBDII car.

you will definitely need a del sol B shift linkage, the B axle from the donor car, the drivers side B mount, the rear T bracket from the B engine, if you use the P28 ecu, you will get a check engine light for vtec. your b18b1 dont have vtec and the ecu will not sense the vtec solenoid, best bet is to get a obd1 P75 5spd ecu and sell your P28, you will actually make money that way, lol for the Ac, you will need the del sol P54 bracket on ebay for $115 shipped. I think thats about it. btw, the stock ls ecu will not work with your car unless you buy an obd jumper.

haha, not that fast bro, My del sol had ls/vtec with boost and I still think it was slow.... Del Sols are pigs, they are super heavy cause they all come fully powered and it has alot of extra reinforcements on them due to the targa top.

depending on the tranny you put in it can be quick, if you mate an ls motor and a b16, gsr, or type r tranny you will have a significantly quicker car than using an ls tranny, del sols aren't that heavy, sure they are heavier than they look but my del sol with me in it and a half tank of gas tipped the scales at 2710lbs.
get the axles b series mounts, do not make your own linkage just buy one, and grab an ls ecu, take your time and enjoy your car, its a fun motor.
