Default b16 in a 91 civic wagon

I have a b16a in my 91 crx si (awesome car) but because of my bigness and my age I have a hard time getting in and out of the car and have grown tired of it. I did the swap myself but is the only one I have done. My question is I would like to put the b16a on a 91 civic wagon (not 4wd). If not mistaken everything is pretty much the same except im am not sure of the hubs on the wagon. Will I be able to use the ones on the wagon or do I have to swap something to get it to work. Is there a spefic model wagon I should be looking for. I know to stay away from the (what i call) the throttle body injection because it only has 2 injectors. If there is anything else I am missing any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance

If you have a 2wd wagon....Yes it is the same as doing a swap in a CRX. The wagon hubs will work with the 90-93 DA axles. This is my wagon and my cousin's. they are both 2wd. The swap was the same as doing a B-Series on any EF.

If anyone's wagon is a 4wd your f'd cause the B-Series motor wont work the D-Series 4wd Tranny...

Hope that helps.

I dont wanna sound rude but why not try and lose weight.

I used to drive a Ef hatch put tons of money into it but

was a little to big for the car so instead of losing the car

I lost the weight . . . F'd up part about a month after my massive weight loss

The car was struck with bad luck, run over by an F150, AND T-Boned

by a 79 Dodge ram charger.

if your talking about why wouldnt you be able to keep 4wd with a bseries motor, it is because, if im correct, the transfer case and the transmission are one integral unit, and i dont think its possible to mount a b20 setup because the 4wd cr-v uses a seperate transfer case...i think.

All the sheet metal on the front of the wagon is different than the EF. Nothing fits.

what about swapping a d16 motor into it? would that bolt right up to the 4wd tranny?

Considering that the 4WD wagon comes with a D16, I'd say YES!
