I was wondering what are some of the common things that people forget when they swap a B16a1 into an EF? I am going to do this swap and I am trying to be as well prepared as possible.

Thanks

make sure you have anther car there, incase you have to run to the store.
have all fluides readdy.
it's helpful to have someone double or even triple check everything that has been loosesn & replaced. Somtimes others can spot tings you can't. better safe than sorry. Take your time.......... if somthing(bolt, plugs, wires ect) doesn't seem to come of DO NOT USE FORCE......or you might end up braking it and having to replace more things. Just my thoughts.

 

I had some gremlins...hehehehe I really didn't forget anything but I did have to rewire a couple times and also reroute my vacuum hoses to get rid of a map code. But now it is all good.

I would say remember all the fluids, oil, coolant, trans oil. I would replace all the wear and tear items. Make sure your wiring is correct and the connections are tight. I would suggest to have an extra car and an extra set of hands->it makes things easier. Good Luck
