assuming the motor you have now is the stock single cam and you want to kepp your turbo set up....go with a d16z6, you won't need to change anything to kepp your turbo kit.

if you went b-series you would need to tap the b-series oil pan get a new manifold etc. etc.....especially if you got a gsr motor your intercooler piping would need to be redone due to the different location of the throttle body.

Get a LS and call it a day at 10 pounds all day long. If you got the money, bump it up to a GSR

1. Would it fit in the civic and
2. is there anything wrong with it or
3. have you had any problems with it, and
4. do you have pictures? and

1. Yes, it is a direct fit (not sure about wiring the vtec in...?).
2. There is nothing wrong with the engine.
3. I have not had any problems whatsoever with the engine
4. I do have pictures, what is your email?
5. Yes, your turbo set up should bolt up the same way.
6. I am selling just the longblock engine, your tranny and intake manifold should work, but I'm not sure about the PS/Alt/AC...

You're wrong.

Every part short of the throttle body and a few other pieces is different between the B18B1 and the D16Z6.

They're not identical at all.

D16Z6 for decent price? Junkyard for 2-300 bucks.

If you go with a B18B1 (LS) You're gonna need to swap over to all B components (change the mounts, change the linkage, change the transmission, then the turbo won't bolt up, so you'll need to buy a B series turbo manifold.

It'll cost a decent penny, get a D16Z6.

Good luck with that in the upper-midwest. There is a very limited supply of good honda parts, and they are very expensive.
