How do you swap a sohc into a integra

Well i have a 95 ls, the start is going bad and the 3rd gear is gone. I might be buying a eg. What i want to do is swap the sohc in my teg. I already have a build motor that is going to the eg so don't worry. And i am planning on taking my shift linkage, axles, and motor mounts, from the ls and using them on the eg. I am using the eg as a shell for now. But what do i need to swap the sohc into my teg. Which mounts (from which car) do i use. And thing i need to buy.

IT should just drop right in...I hope you don't plan to sell that teg..because if you did and you didn't disclose the "downgrade" swap to the next buyer, you can be fined/jailed for fraud. Hope you knew that.

It's basically just the reverse of putting a B series into an EG. Just use EG mounts if the D series is from another generation, hydro D series tranny, D series axles and linkage, etc. Definitely not a good swap idea but it would work if you needed to do it.

If they came like this from the factory, it can be done. Use stock EG mounts.

What mount do you use for the ac and power steering?? Do you use the integra mounts or the d-series?

Of course D-series. For a B-series swap in an EG/DC chassis, you'd use a B-series.

Search in the itr archives. I think Kendall or someone put a sohc in his itr while waiting for a k20.

Has anyone driven a DC2 with a SOHC? How under powered is it?

So now we've gone from making our cars faster to making them slower.

i doubt some middle aged women would buy the car then go to check her oil one day and freak out "O my, there is a d series in here! where's my b!?!"

Re: How do you swap a sohc into a integra (CivicVX94)

i was almost tempted to sell my itr swap and with that money build a badass turbo d series with money to spare lol

it would have more tq then a boosted b series and can make 400whp reliably so what could possibly be bad about it except for maybe the transmission/gearing
