Default b18b swap?

so i was considering some swaps and i would like to do a b18b swap in my eg....i was just wondering how much those motors go for full swap. and what the best thing to do with it would be. Like ls/vtec or just boost. also what type of mounts could i use for this? anyone have a b18b swap they wanna let go??

search the marketplace. You might find one real cheap. I would say anywhere from 1500-2000 be the price range depending on the parts that you get.

i have the LS swap in my 93 CX, it was a huge improvement over my D15B8 (70hp 83TQ). its a super easy swap if you plan on doing it yourself, if your car is non-vtec. the wiring harnesses are identical. as for mounts, just us stock integra mounts or aftermarket ones for and integra. so a checklist for a B18B swap would be:

Engine and Transmission
Integra mounts
Integra axles(including halfshaft)
complete engine harness
ECU
Exhaust manifold and Cat (thats what i used and i worked)
Shift linkage
maybe more but that should be it.

thats about it, fortunatly i was able to have my brothers wrecked integra to pull everything out of so it was a free swap for me.
