search "B16 swap" in the archives of the EF forum to answer all your questions. with the proper mounts, axles and shift linkage a B16 will bolt into your 88-91 civic or crx, so mechanically it is a direct swap but you'll need to run some wires to make it work depending on what chassis it's going into (i.e. Si,Dx or std)

If you rin OBD 0 our only need to run 3-4 wires,
1 wire for vtec solenoid
2 wires for vtec pressure switch
1 wire for knock sensor if applicable

if your running obd 1 you'll need a bit more wiring or you can buy the conversion from Rywire.

SEARCH SEARCH SEARCH!!!

good luck
