i'm planning on getting a b18c5 within this month...been saving up....and i gonna buy a b18c5 head and long-block for 2500....is dat a good price? and i thought if i bought parts separately it'll be cheaper? wut is everything that 'll i'll be needing for a motor swap in my ek9 hatch???

 

HI vtec562,

I am thinking about the same thing for my 1991 Integra LS. Where are you getting your b18c5 from ? and are you doing the installation yourself or are you working with a shop ?

Thanks,

Joe

 

i'm getting my b185 from some dude that crashed his itr ...backside and sides all crunked up...but motor is still good ...i'm gonna take it to a shop and they're gonna do it for me for 3 bills in less than a day...i would experiment myself...but i don't wanna mess up....plus i want it dont quick ...

 

good price.
all your gonna need is the ECU, axles and mounts. if the ones he has arent damaged i would try and buy them off the owner for a small sum.
ALSO your going to need the ECU immobilized OR your going to have to use the ITR ignition. someone said you can tape the key to the inside of the steering colum anyone wanna verify this?

 

you still need a b series tranny
