just finished the LS swap into my 95 dx two weeks ago and it was pretty simple. teg mounts worked great but if you want to keep a/c you need a b16 bracket. hasport sells em for 165...good luck

Re: (civicboisi)
here it goes.......................b16 vs b18b again lol
for the money a b18b is a good buy i bought mine for 900 for everything complete swap and the motor seems to do really fine. (14.6@94 best w/o me driving) 14.7@94 with me behind the wheel for a non vtec motor thats dam good i think lol.

Re: (dragboy)
Yes, I did my own swap....I like it. Ran a 14.9 with no mods whatsoever to the engine. Wish it revved to about 7500rpm though because I am about to turbocharge it and could use the extra 300rpm of powerband since the turbo is rather large. Oh well, thats what S200 is for 
. Paid $1500 for my full swap and she runs like a charm, can't beat the price, modability, and cheapness of an LS...thats why I bought mine. I wouldn't buy any other motor and boost on stock internals mearly for the fact that the swap would be so expensive, I wouldn't want to risk the motor, but she would be a lot more fun n/a than my b18b is n/a. If I blow my b18b, I can replace it much more cheaply. However, I can't deny that a boosted vtec motor would be wicked in my car.

the one for a teg WILL bolt right up. in fact all the mounts from a teg will bolt right up. i know because i did my swap myself, and i've taken my motor out many times as well as dropped it back in.

not quite. any b-series motor out of a del sol or 94+ integ with stock mounts will bolt in to a 5g civic. anything else will require other mounts or a cable tranny adaptor kit
