JDM b18b into a DA questions
I will be picking up a JDM B18B ( OBD 1) this weekend for our 93 DA. My questions are:
do I need to use my intake manifold off the b18a1 thats in the car now?
will the dizzy to my b18a1 fit?
i have been told this is a direct swap. anything in particular i should pay close attention to not working, etc
also we plan to change the belts, water pump, thermostat, etc. are all these parts the same as a USDM parts from a 94-95 ls?
Also which grade fuel to use..93? since i know 87 wont be best

IM, distributor, you can use from your old motor. Everything else should be the same as well, so long as the years are the same. Not sure if b18a's and b18b's used different belts WP, thermostats. You can take a look for the stamp on your head as to what year your block was made. There's a year difference in what was stamped, I believe.

isnt the 93 da's obd1? if so then everything should work, no need to swap parts from your old motor. mid grade gas should be fine
