Thank God it started! Couple of small issues with B18c in EG
well, after F*@%ing around with AC and PS and not making any progress, I decided to test my skils and fire up my newly installed b18c
Plugged everything back up. Had to shift the harness around some for extra play. The 92 civic ex harness is a tight fit on the B series (or at least mine is)
oil - check
coolant - check
fuel lines - check
double check harness plugs
Hook up battery - check
Turn key in ignition - NOTHING
Oh, forgot to push in the clutch. Damn, no clutch pedal
Hook up slave cylinder.
Crank it... It's cranking!!!
press the gas pedal twice and crank again.........................
Man, an open 4-1 ITR header never sounded so good!! Let it run for a few minutes. checked fuel pressure and looked for leaks. No CEL. rock solid idle.
So the problems:
Engine is a 99 jdm ITR, car is a 92 civic EX
1) the Civic ac compressor wont bolt up to the P30 AC bracket I am using. I've read this works along with another, P54 maybe? But only 2 holes line up between the compressor and bracket
2) I am using the ITR PS pump, but the civic PS hose will not bolt up. I tried using the civic PS pump as well, but the tensioner was not right
Any insight into these problems??

It feels good doesn't it. When i installed my B16 into my Civic and all I had was a O2 CEL I felt so good. I was surprised by how much difference there was between my D16y8 and the b16a2. Congrats. As for the A/C I ended up using a Bseries A/C mount and compressor. All I had to do was change the lines. But it was an EK so I don't have any experience with an EG.
