im not an expert at swapping, im running a d15b2 with a Si head thats all my engine mods so far..but most likely you'll need engine mounts, tranny, ecu, change your wiring to obd1. thats all i can say, hope it helps you out a bit.

you need to know what model CRX it was. chances are it was a DX with only 2 fuel injectors and he paniced.
if it only has two injectors, its whats know as Dual Port Fuel Injection (DPFI) which will not work with any b-series motor.
first you would have to do a MPFI conversion.
mounts you can get arizona race and machine or HASport or avid or whoever else makes bseries mounts, youll also need shift linkage.
you need to know if its hydrolic or cable tranny. the year of the integra donor car would help. if it was pre-odb or odb-1....... very important
you need to know all of that before you even think of buying that, or else your taking on something youll never finish.

I would sell the motor and look for a complete swap. I say this for no other reason than to make the project mine, rather then finnishing someone elses. See if you can find something complete w/ everything but jumper harness if it's needed

i doubt that....... maybe 40k after rebuild
if the crx is an si then wiring is easy........... use your stock harness and it shuould plug right up no problem........ the car is obd-0 or non obd and the motor is obd-0 or non obd
i am running a obd-1 LS in my crx still obd-0. The only problem that i had was the MAP sensor because it was on the TB on my motor. All i did is use a 90-91 integra ls TB and used the crx map sensor. You should be fine. post pics

that sucks...do a mpfi conversion, which sucks...new mounts because the d series mounts dont compensate with the b series mounts...
