Swaping a b16 into a '91 Integra (pics!)
Well, ive finally started on installing my friends jdm b16 into his '91 integra GS. The chassis and motor in it have somewhere close to 380,xxx miles on it.The motor is in pretty bad shape, havnt done a compression test or anything but it runs like crap and is leaking oil from everwhere possible. The car was bought from an original owner for $1100. We picked the swap up from NADauto in atl. for 1500bucks(cool place and people,they did a compression test right it front of us and even cranked it up!) and it has been sitting in my garage for about 6 months so its time for it to go into its new home.

Not bad. I believe O.E. cap and rotor should be utilized though. They have much better contruction than Bosch. If you where to place the parts side by side, you'd know what I mean. O.E. belts, cap and rotor, and of course NGK(you have those already) is the best way to go.
