Default usdm b18c5 swap into 92-95 eg

Im not too familiar with these swaps so id like to ask a couple questions:

How hard is it to get bar certification since i live in california?
How hard is the swap to do?
What motor mounts work the best?
What kind of quartermile times can i expect from b18c5 in a hatch?
Does the car need to be run on usdm itr 5 lug or can you use gsr 4 lug?

ive searched but these are more direct questions i cant seem to find

1.getting a certification is kinda a headache but do-able

2.the swap is something you can do by yourself ...but if it is your first time....you will definitely **** "something" up

3.Stock 94-00 integra mounts will work fine

4. 14.5 on street tires at least

5.you do not need a 5 lug suspenion to run the motor


if your in the bay area, i am too.....pm me if you need some help

you can use the 0bd 2 distributer and harness but you need to run a wire from your distirbuter directly to the tach.....the wire is VERY simple.....keep in mind the alternator, injectors must all be obd2.....

thanks for the info, but I decided to go with an obd1 jdm b18c1 with a civic si tranny, should be really simple and pretty quick.
