Re: power steering for b18b into ek (streetspeed)
When I put a 95 LS into my 98 Civic I had to get a power steering line from an older honda b/c my fitting on the 98 Civic line was too big to fit in the LS pump.
So I had tony from jotech cut and weld the small fitting on the 98 civic line, works perfect.

I put a 2000 b18b into a 99 lx, and i used the pump that came with the b18b. Everything just bolted right up. The steering did feel a little lighter, so I took the pump out.

b/c power steering kicks ***, its not a workout when trying to park.
You can do one of two things, do what I did and have someone weld the right fitting on, or goto a junkyard and find a hose that bends the same way as your civic one and still has the smaller fitting.
The first is the easiest and cost me $15

What year is your pump, because mine fit fine. No modifications necessary. Mine was a 2k b18b into a 99 lx.

Re: power steering for b18b into ek (purek9hybrid)
yea it is personal prefrence.
a d-series power steering pump wont fit on the b18b, I've tried before i had to get the fitting welded.
the pumps are year specific so depends on what year motor you have to whether or not he is gonna need to change the fitting.
