Default Motor swap suspension ?

After searching I am unable to make a solid conclusion. I have a 98 ex coupe and its getting a gsr motor swapped in right now I get it back on friday and my question is this, right now I have no finger gap between my fender and tire, 215 40 16, and I know b series weigh more than d series, so am I going to have to raise my car when I get back from rubbing, also Im on shitty *** dropzone coilovers so it will be no problem to just wondering if the added weight of the new motor will actually cause me to have to raise my car back up a little.

I think alot is going to depend on you spring rates.
The b series is not that much heavier than the d series and since your on aftermarket springs, my guess will be, no, you wont have to raise it.

but the only way to be sure is just wait and find out.

Have fun with your new swap.
