Icon3 B16 swap in ej1 QUESTIONS

Ok so i know this is a dumb question and deserve to get slapped for it, but what all do i need to swap a b16 into my 92 eg coupe? Had a d16 minime in it before and blew the motor. A lot of dumb people in this town, so just want to double check and clarify what all i need to do the swap. Im still obd1.

Bseries axles, shift linkage, fuel line from filter to rail, throttle cable, rear dc T bracket, dc rad hoses, ecu.

You're already wired for vtec but may have to extend a few wires

Thank you for the help. cant wait for my first car to sell so i can buy the swap and am very excited. what potential can i expect out of a b16? stoked about the vtec cross on them. eventually want to bet a b20 block and go crvtec for the big power after the b16 head is built. thanks!!

If you are around sea level and hit a high 14 i think you will be doing good, i would fo sure do the b20Vtec just be sure an do it all the right way and dont cut corners, trust me you will regret it.

b16 will be torqueless. period. until you get above 4k you will not notice any power really at all, but once the rpms go up the b16 will start to pull nice. they love a good set of cams though, even gsr or itr cams are a huge difference.

u could go B20 now. and then build a B16 or GSR head to put on the B20 later.

Coupes were 93-95 only, check your VIN. I have a B16 in my EJ1 too, you'll love it once it revs up, but otherwise it's not really very noticeably different

everyone was once a noob, but you still look like a noob for bumping your own thread from 4 years ago
