Default HELP - B18A Engine SWAP - 93 civic

Hey,

I am swapping in a B18A engine and transmission into my 1993 honda civic HB. I have the 2 side motor mounts in, using the integra motor mounts. Now the problem is this:

1. It WAS an automatic. I need to know what pedals to use???

2. The Civic is obd1, the B18A is OBD0. I think keeping the obd0 harness on the engine is good, and keep obd1 ecu. just splice wires???? I need help!!!!!

3. The transmission is CABLE. If I get civic pedals, they will be for a hydro. I have integra pedals for the cable, but they dont seem to fit. I am in a jama s this is my everyday car and has been out of commission all long weekend and now the week.

4. The rear motor mount. What mount do I use? The civic mount I dont think willwork. Will the integra mount work?

5. Any other problems I am going to face ??

Any one can help me? I need some info.

now is there any one that can help me with my wireing? here is a breakdown:

I have a b18a (obd0) engine, trans, all engine wireing and dizzy. I have a obd1 ecu (b18b1) b18b1 injectors and obd1 stock 93 civic wire harness for the rest. Now how am I going to wire this? Do I splice teh obd0 and hook it up to my obd1 at the firewall on the drivers and passengers side? Is it possible? Where can I find a walk through for doing this. thanks... -Ryan

so you are telling me that my d15b7 engine harness will plug into a b18a1 engine? I dont think it will. Correct me if I am wrong. Because if that works, I am a happy man!!!

you migh have 1 or 2 plugs not needed and you might need to lenghten some of the plug wires, but all in all it should plug up...i was using a 92 si harness on my poormans ITR swap...now im using a ls harness.
