what is needed to put an obd1 b18 into an 97 ek? i have the back bracket, what else is needed? HELP PLEASE

 

u will need driver side and tranny mounts..shift linkage...p72 ecu or a chipped p28 ecu tuned by a pro..with hanress conversion to obd1...axles...complete engine harness...and all the sensors..depends on how complete the engine swap is
and about 15~17 hours of labor to do diy the swap..or $500~$700 to have a shop do it for u

noob

you need all si mounts, conversion harness to run the obd-1 ecu, use your stock harness, ad convert all the stuff on the motor to obd-2 like injectors, alternator, distributor

reuse your stock tranny mount...that is fine...SI L-bracket, i suggest an aftermarket driver side mount...but you can just use an si driver side mount...
and what he says......but if the motor is an obd1...you will have to do the three wire to two wire plug...forgot the site that has the notes on this...i had to do that to mines...but i suggest just getting an obd2 swap....less mess and less hassle on the long run...plus...if you have smog...you'll be safe...i regret putting my obd1 b16 into my 98 hatch...

why would u need to convert those if your running obd1?
or r u saying that cause u'd be using ur obd2 wiring harness?
n would u just use the stuff off the d?

i was addressing the same theory

 

but ur saying to use the harness from the b18. thats a lot of splicing isnt it? we arent talking eg where its plug n play.

yes to be able to use the obd2 harness on the obd1 motor, but all you can use from the d16 is the injectors

 

how would you go about converting them then?

is it just the plugs on the alt, and dis? or do u have to swap the whole unit?

 

either cut and splice the plugs or replace them with obd2 B series
