i blew the b16a after a summer of boosting and i dont really want to buy another one because they are alot more money than an ls block. how hard is the swap from a b16a to an LS? does anyone know if all my custom turbo parts will bolt up meaning my intercooler pipes and custom downpipe? what wiring needs to be done? thanks

 

ttt

 

some has to have done this before?

 

just pull the b16 and put the b18 back in. you will want to run the b16 tranny though, im not 100% sure on the turbo parts but they should still fit the same

 

well u can just pull out the b16 and drop the ls in. it should be a direct drop in. and keep the ls tranny if ur boosting.

 

i have a b16 lsd tranny. im using that

 

there is no other wiring i have to do? the vtec wire?

 

B18B's (LS/RS/GS/SE) are non-vtec... so there's no vtec wiring...

 

yeah i know, but i have a vtec wire from the b16. just cut it?

 

no just leave them in there they wont hurt anything

 

make sure you run the LS ecu or you'll throw codes.

 

what about a chipped p28 with a stock ls rom? same thing

you'll be fine then. You may need a differen't rear mount. Other than that, It should drop right in. I may be wrong about that though. Just leave the wiring the same
