Default B20Z in a 5th gen civic

I wanted to build and install a crvtec engine into my 93 civic si. Right now I have enough money for a B20Z long block, and a GSR tranny and axles.

My question is can I put in the B20Z with the GSR tranny?

I know that the intake manifold from the B20's wont fit under the hood, but I have an intake manifold from a B16 sitting in my garage right now, so I dont think that would be a problem.

Would I be able to use the ECU from the CRV, or would I have to get a teg LS ecu?

What mounts would I need from the CRV, and what mounts would I need from the GSR?

1. Yes, a GSR tranny will work

2. B16 intake manifold won't fit. You need a LS intake manifold.

3. No, you need to use an ECU from a 92-95 Integra

4. Same mounts as doing any other B-series swap into an EG chassis.

How about a B20Z in a 6th gen civic? What mounts and ecu would you need? Thanks

You'd use all the same mounts that are used on a Civic Si motor.

The ecu would either come from a 96-98 LS or 99-01 LS depending on the year of your car.
