I wouldn't swap in that motor if I were you. Maybe use the block as a starting point for an LSVTEC but I wouldn't swap it in as is. Here's the bad points: The 90-91 were non-OBD, cable tranny, mounts are different, etc. If you want an LS go with a 94+ B18B1 with hydro tranny - direct fit and hardly any wiring involved if you use a 94-95 LS ecu.

You'll need a HASport mount kit and hydro to cable conversion kit. Then you'll have a lot of wiring to do or convert the motor and accesories to OBDI and use a 94-95 OBDI ecu. I think it is way to much $ to invest for what little return you will get out of the setup. If you have it, sell it to someone with an 88-91 Civic/CRX and get yourself a 94+ LS setup.
