bare minimum parts to run engine
Figured you hatch guys could help with this:
What are the bare components needed to run a b series vtec drivetrain? Like ignoring amenities and emissions? I was thinking about pulling the motor and stripping the "crowded as hell" engine bay down to only the necessary components for performance (still street driven but with no amenities).
So far I have:
Head/block/oil pan
Intake manifold
Throttle Body
Radiator and hoses
Tranny
Starter
Distributor
Thanks for the help.

I'm not sure I understand exactly what you are trying to do, but if you are referring to the emissions sensors and things like that then it depends on which type of engine management you would use. Pretty much all of the Honda/Acura ECU's will require most, if not all of the sensors to be used for the engine to run properly. There's not too much bare bones setups that you could run without using standalone management and if you are that serious I doubt you would be asking such a question, no offense

Re: bare minimum parts to run engine (VTECVillain)
Need standalone, figured so. Lets assume hondata or maybe even AEM EMS. Basically just getting rid of bullshit parts in the engine. Just enough to crank it and drive it. I want to full out get rid of the nonsense stuff in my car. I'm stripping interior and doing rollcage etc...You know full blown project that will still drive on the street...just with no amenities. And I am serious...
