Im ready to buy my engine, but if I get a first gen b16 then I'll have a few bucks left over for goodies, do I need different mounts? I know I need a hydro-cable conv., obd-1 dizzy and the inj. off of my sohc would it be worth it to get that one or should I just get the genII with a hydro and everything ready to go?

p.s. has anyone bought from e-bay before? I know its pretty risky but sometimes I think I can get an engine by piecing it together block/head etc. and get some good parts but Im not sure, im in so. fl and the only place I know where to buy is RICKYS and Im not too sure about them other wise I'll get it from OSAKA everyone seems to be happy w/ them

thanks

 

u might as well get a 2nd gen b16 complete swap. that way u dont have to buy mounts, ecu, axles, hydro tranny conv., etc. Try http://www.thepartstrader.com and try to find a swap within driving distance. That way u can check it out before u buy it. I found my swap on there, rented a cargo van, and drove a couple hours to pick it up in D.C. The best thing was it only cost $80 to rent the van and I knew what i was getting. It beats paying shipping charges and wondering what your getting.
