B20b Swap into 92-95 Civic Questions
Hello everyone
I am going to be doing a B20b swap soon in my friends 92-95 civic HB. I've done multiple searchs pertaining to the swap and have gotten answers to most of my questions. However, I still have some questions that are unanswered, I would greatly appreciate those who help me answer some of the questions
1. Wiring Harness I am unclear about the wiring situation, which Engine harness do I use? the original b20 harness? the Civic Harness? or the 94-95 Integra Harness?
If its the Civic Harness, are there any modifications that need to be done for this to work? and Same question about the Integra Harness.
2. Distributor According to what i've read, the B20b is a OBD2 motor therefore having a OBD2 distributor. is this distributor compatible with the OBD1 harness If i use either the OBD1 Civic or Integra Harness?
3. Intake Manifold The intake Manifold on this motor is HUGE, will there be any clearance problems with the hood? if there is, will shimming up the rear of the hood solve the situation or will I have to use LS Intake Manifold.
4. ECU Which ECU should I be using for this swap? a P74, P75 or the ECU found in the Civic which is the non-vtec model
I would like to say thanks again in advance to the members that can help me answer soem of these questions

Use your stock wiring harness...if you want you can use the b18b obd1 harness, but its not necessary
Use an obd1 b18b distributor
Use a B18b intake manifold
P75/P74 ecu (obd1 LS) - either is fine
