this is going to be my first engine swap, i'm putting a B18C1 into my 2000 civic ex coupe. im getting the motor, tranny, and ECU all from the same guy. i have a mechanical know-how and a repair manual to guide me, so im wondering about how long did it take you guys on average to swap a motor the first time you did it? also do you know if all of the motor mounts will line up, or will that take some custom fabrication? thanks guys

 

There is a faq on top of the forum page.You can search there and you will find the answers.

 

It will take between 5hrs - the whole weekend. It just depends on how you allocate your time, how many times you need to run to Home Depot to pick up bolts, if you're missing parts, if everything lines up, etc...

took me a month, no fabs needed, just the right parts. make sure you have another car to take you to work so you can pay for all this stuff.

 

i did mine in like 3 hours in a 92 hatch

 

if its ur first swap its prolly gonna take u a week. it took me a week but i ran into problems.
