best swap for 96 hatch??
rite now i am running stock engine (sohc non-vtec) and and considering doing a swap somewhere down the road when i get the money....i hear the b16 series swaps are easy for a 96, is that true?? would a different one be better, or is that the most practical one?? also, please post links to sites that have these engines on them, so i can check out pricing...and what 1/4 times would i be looking at with a b16 in there?? thanks a lot in advance

one more thing....my car is OBDII and so i would need an adapter for most of these engines right? and would i need to get new axels??? this is from that webapge....
The 92-up Honda Civic/ Del Sol /94-up Integra needs the B16A2/B18C5/or B18C motor. These motors bolt right in and will work on models that are not OBDII, unless you change the entire wiring harness or use the adapter by Group A Motorsports. You also need to get axles from an Integra GSR (94-up) or Civic Si (99 up).

B18c1 GSR motor is the way to go ! even if you decide to boost or to stay all motor you can not go wrong . and it doesnt cost as much as B18c5 and you get more TQ then B16a

Re: best swap for 96 hatch?? (Spoon1)
where could i find at b18c1??? any links to websites? and is that as easy of a swap in as a b16a2?? and with the h22, i dont think i would do that, although it has more power i think with all the things i need to mount it right it would get too pricy...
