I just want to say this site is GREAT source of info as I spent almost all day reading about B20's yesterday. Lots of good posts. I just want to make sure my ducks are in a row before I drop any $ and was wanting some opinions. I have a almost stock (i/h/e) 94 ls integra w/5 spd. The tranny is good (worn clutch) but the motor although still running has a dead cylinder. I have found a 21,xxx mile 2000 b20z us crv motor for a good price (still in the crv) and and want some opinions on what to use from the two motors as to have the best setup. This is a DD car and will never have any more then a few blot on's.
Question 1
If i just put a new clutch (ls or gsr) and resurface my ls flywheel it will bolt up properly to the b20 correct?
question 2
I use the ls :intake, injectors, exhaust, pulleys, and dizzy?

From reading I think I can use all my ls parts and just bolt everything on the crv if I am correct? If I use all my ls parts will I have to change any wiring on the ls harness to use this crv motor? Thanks for all the help and for such a great site And if there is anything I am missing on doing this swap please inlighten me.

 

And one last thing I will have about $400 to spend after I purchase the motor, clutch and timing belt. Where would my $ be best spent?

keep it until all the kinks of the swap are worked out. trust me you will get nickel and dime(d) to death by swaps sometimes

 

Well gonna keep every penny till I have everything running. Very good advice

So its just the same as putting a b18b if I use all my componets correct? Any thoughts on the computer? Will the motor run lean with the stock ls computer or be fine? Is there anything I would need from the junk yard crv other then the complete head and block? Just want to be 100% sure before I go to the wrecker after I get off work tommorow and get this thing. Thanks a BUNCH!!!

 

same ECU too
