I'm trying to put a JDM B16 automatic into my 95 civic sedan automatic. I purchased Innovative mounts along with a ls rear mount. A friend has been trying to do the swap for a week. He has been unable to get the motor to fit. Ive called several places but I'm being told it cant be done. I have a bum right arm so i need to keep it an automatic unless it absolutely cant be done. If anyone has any information that can help it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your help

 

it will fit you might look into get another mechanic

 

Don't let anybody tell you it can't be done. Just do it. If Japanese Civics came with auto trans b16s in their engine compartments than you can find a way to make it work in a USDM.

 

dont use the aftermarket mounts, use the OG honda ones.

 

And when you do happen to make it fit have you planned out how your going to get it to shift? You do know the TCU and wiring is totally different between the single cam and B16 setups right?

 

damn. i purchased a new wiring harness but i thought that was all i needed as far as wiring goes. any advice?

 

do you think the original mounts will be a better fit?

Do a 5-speed swap or find someone who wants to go through a usdm wiring harness and jdm chassis harness and find a jdm TCU and auto p30 and wire it all up.

 

thanks man, i appreciate the help
