You'll need a mount kit. Is it OBD0 or 1 also?

Ditch the cable and get with a hydraulic,as far as the harness,hmmm...not sure i the B18A1 harness will plug into the CX shock towers,so you may need to use the CX's,someone on here has to know for sure.

I have that swapped into my 90 Civic DX. It's not running for some reason. I was wondering if the problem could be the distributor. I have a automatic LS distributor on and my car is a 5 speed. Could this be the reason why my car is not running?
