Default Searched already: OBD0 b18a into 92 Civic?

ok guys I just got done with the search and didn't come up with anything definitive. I have a 91 B18a that I was gonna put in my CRX but it got rear-ended and was totaled. So I bought a 92 Civic CX real cheap but the 70hp is killing me. So what do I need to do so that I can put the OBD0 motor into my OBD1 car? I know I need a hydro tranny or the conversion for that but I want to know about the dizzy, injectors, and such. I do have an OBD1 PR4 so that should make it easier right? Well let me know what you guys have done.

Thanks
Jarrid

yeah I already posted that I have the ecu coming to me now. Just wasnt sure on the other items, Do I have to swap out the entire manifold or is it just the map sensor that is different?

The first swap I did was a b18a into a 94 del sol

Don't waste your time.

But I have the Place Racing 92-95 cable tranny mount if you wanna buy it.

you can buy a cable to hydro conversion kit from has port (199) to install and convert the tranny. 2nd your best bet for the engine is find an obdI b18b with p74 or obdI p75 ecu or you can spend a fortune for a 94 ls

You should be able to re use your stock wiring harness (I had a d16z6 in my 93 sol and used it on my swap)
I'd use the 91 ls ex mani so you don't have to relocate the O2 sensor.
then you need 5spd 94-00 teggie shifter linkage and use either the 91-93 teggie intermediate shaft and cv axles or 94-00 teggie axles and intermediate shaft
you need the driver side a/c mount bracket from a 94-00 teggie(u cant use ac) or dohc del sol ac mont bracket if you want ac.
need rear mount bracket from 94-00 teggie make sure this is for a 5spd auto will not work.
you need upper driver side mount
you cannot use the passenger side front dampner with a cable tranny but you'll need one for the driver side.
you do want a 94 teggie intake manifold to avoid all the crappy vaccume lines and get the t.b. while your at it with all the sensors.
you will need all the alt. p.s. brackets along with the alt. and p.s
I'd recomend using a 94 teggie crank pulley to avoid a problem with not only matching belts to your engine accessories but to also use all ribbed belts and get away from the squeaky v-belts.
IMO get the 94 ls engine and avoid all the hassel but you can use the cable tranny with no problem
oh yeah and get a dohc del sol upper radiator hose and change the timing belt and water pump before you install the swap
hope this helps
