Yeah you need dx or si hubs..
And the ls tranny is the worst longest geared b-series tranny and its sucks for acceleration...The b16 tranny is one of the shortest..Real good for acceleration..But when your in 5th gear doing like 60mph your at like 5000rpm..So it sucks for gas milaage..So what a lot of peeps do is they put an ls 5th gearset into the b16 tranny to get a the long 5th gear for the highway cruising and less engine noise,,etc..but still have the short 1-4 gearing
And $2500 is to much man..you're getting ripped
88-91 sir B16a,tranny,ecu,etc..--$1250 (hmotorsonline.com)
Motor mount kit --$275 shipped (azracemachine.com)
Shift linkage--$95 shipped (azracemachine.com)
Exedy clutch--$100-$120 (Ebay.com)
90-93 integra axles and intermediate shaft--Around $100(Prices vary but they're cheap..)
So thats 1250+275+95+120+(Lets say $100 for axles) ==$1840
Saves you alot of money that you can invest into the motor or car..

oh the $2500 is installed professionally at a local motorsports shop! i have no experieces installing my own engine, but i would like to! i am more in electrical and bodywork! well thanks for the info! now i know and will do that LS 5th gear swap!
Sorry I didnt know that was the installed price,,
$2500 installed is a pretty good price considering the outrageous labor prices from some shops....
