I can't say for B series as that would be a tough one for most to pass emissions with,

I am currently swapping in a Fit motor but I can she some light on the knuckles for you.
You can use EM2 civic knuckle for 4 lug or RSX/EP3 for 5. With shims you can use stock shocks or like most, use an rsx type coil over as well, the steering arm is a bit higher but works. You will have to modify either the stock lower control arm or the knuckle as they both have the ball joint attached. There are a few builds on insightcentral.net but as you will notice, everyone does it a little different. When you have it figured out that far, call Insane Shafts or Driveshaft shop for axles.



Im having these machine fit into my control arms, some use a similar product on the knack instead
