B18B Swap into 96 Civic DX Coupe
I did a little searching but couldn't turn up much.
I am going to be getting a semi built b18b, just the motor as far as I know , although I am sure that if I needed a little more I could get it (the motor is coming out of an integra, so the rest of the parts are still in it)
I am relativly new to the Honda world, but not the car world. All my experience has been on Subarus.
What else will I need besides the motor to do this swap. Can I keep the same trans?
I would like to know what I am going to need now, so I can prepare everything before I actually go to drop the engine in. (Might even try to start setting up the turbo setup)
The civic now has a b16 and runs OBDII
Help me! Thanks guys

thats cool. you said the civic already has a b16 in it then keep that tranny and put it on the b18. or you can do a ls/vtec and use the b18 block and the b16 head and keep the b16 tranny. just a few suggestions. Search ls/vtec on here
