Default B18b into an 84 prelude?

Iv got an 84 prelude sittin around that i want to make driveable. I just want a cheap dependable swap so i was thinking of a b18b/manual. Is this going to be fairly easy to do, or is it going to get tricky? Any help is appreciated.

also, whats a good price to pay for the motor, trans and ecu. thanks

that helped him with one of his questions

oooo, look at the '05 sendin' people to the search function!

to answer the question, all I know is that its is not a plug-and-play swap by any stretch of the imagination.

prelude3G.com will be more helpful then HT with your application, unfortunately.

drivergt5 did a b16a swap in his. Major work! I think he said that he wouldn't do it again. He also still has the templates for the mounts.

check out 3geez.com, its accords but i'm pretty positive 84-87 prelude engine bays are the same as 86-89 accords, place racing makes mounts for the 86-89 accord so just go there and look
