Default RE: b18c5 swap into 90' civic hatch

I am going to buy a b18c5 full swap. now the wiring harness is included and is not cut. do i have to do any modifications when wiring it? is there any threads out there of this being done before? when i say full swap i mean motor, transmission, axles, shift linkage, ecu, wiring harness, all sensors, etc.... any help will be greatly appreciated.

Both of those are good links. Just remeber, a full swap does not include everything that you'll need.
Do you have a Si, DX or HF?

I think the DX hubs are compatible being they are the same thing as the SI hubs and I have a B in my car with the stock SI hubs.
