Default so...if i swapped a d15b...

first of all, i have a 1995 lx with a completly stock D15B7 (and it has seen better days).

so...lets say i buy a D15B SOHC VTEC Longblock from hmotorsonline..

http://www.hmotorsonline.com/s...30019

and i buy the P08 ECU..

all i would need would be a ex/si wiring harness to make the swap a piece of cake? ?

thanks for any info or advice you may have

Umm. I'm not 100% sure, but from what info I've aquired, that is right. Buy the ex/si harness for ease of install. Adding vtec wiring really isn't very difficult... its just what, 3 wires? And when the engine is out, wrap the added wires into the stock harness. It'll look facotry then! Some wires <u>may</u> need to be extended since over seas they are rhd and the wires come from the right side. Get it? I wrote a lot, but didn't mean a lot.
