Default Second Gen Prelude -b series swap

hey guys
First post so the forums so go easy
i own a 1985 honda prelude
1.8 ltr
twin carby
auto
anyway i did the spray myself as professionally as i could and its actually pretty decent.
its got the plate JDM 085 which is pretty
i'm from tasmania in Australia

anyway. torque converter broke so now power to the wheels anymore. i'm in the process of taking the gearbox out when its come to me.
screw this i want more power.
i'm looking at a b20c7 from a AUDM DC2R integra
going from like 80kw to 145kw would be dope,
just enquiry as to what i probably need to do when its comes to installing,
i understand i'd probably have to get custom axles and engines mount and a gearbox to suit (manual for sure)
but just enquiry as if someone has any expertise in this area and could give me some ideas/help

anyway heres some photos of my car thanks guys



broken as

do you have the A20 from the third generation accord there? it's a drop in for the second generation, and you can go FI and run quite a bit of boost on them, there is a lot of info on three geez, as it's the sister car of the third gen accord

it's a lot easier to drop in an A20 and either boost or go Obd2 we have a guy on three geez who makes the dizzy adapter plates, I think he made some more, there are cam options,header options etc, plus there was a group buy on the mousleman cast manifold for turbo, I think these are still some floating around, it's a heck of a tough engine
