Well I understand this topic has been beaten to death . From what I have read is this motor will drop right in wiring , trans , and all. I called local japan engine supply guy today , and he claimed that on the 96 JDM B20B's the oil pump is missing the crank angle sensor. And that I would have to swap over my LS oil pump. Any truth to that ? I think this guy has no clue what he was talkin about in the first place. Any help or links to other threads about the install are greatly appreciated. thnx

 

bump to watch

 

anyone ?

 

true, I have jdm b20b and it don't have crank angle sensor but you really don't need it unless your running an ls ecu "check engine light".

 

no need to change anything wit the oil pump just the IM and used your ls harness and a obd1 ls ecu and you good to go

 

well I still need to pass safety and IM here in Utah. Will running a obd1 ecu compromise that ? I would really rather stick with my stock ECU to save from any headaches.

 

the crank angle sensor don't effect emmission if you have obd2A unless the they won't pass you b/c you have a check engine light

 

yeah I won't pass because of the check engine light . they will plug my car into the reader as well no matter what. So simple solution is swap over the LS oil pump from my stock motor ?

 

yeap!

 

2000 posts !!!! thnx for the help

 

You need to swap oil pumps and crank angle sensor. Also you need to swap intake manifolds as the one on the B20 is too high and not the same.

I would suggest just calling around to local junk yards to see if any of them have a 96-00 Integra engine for sale.

I just put one in my friends 96 integra. It had a B20 in it which I put in 3 years ago but finally blew up due to no oil.

 

I have my stock engine still so getting a pump and sensor are no biggy. Are you saying to just get a B18B instead or contact local yards for parts ?

 

you dont need to swap it the only think u need to do is jump the wiring of the sensor..

here you go ..

 

the JDM dizzy usually has this sensor and if you knew what wires went where you could splice and be good. i just bought a 97 JDM ITR and had the same swap issues. since i'm using a USDM p73 ecu ,the crank sensor, vtec and dizzy were mandatory changes. if you do change the pump make SURE you use the USDM crank sprocket too. the JDM one is not designed for a crank sensor and you will pull your hair out trying to figure out why it isn't working.

 

go to the link ill show you how to jump it and it will be good

 

oh wow , ok so riddle me this , yes that is going to turn off the cel. but if they hook the scanner up anyway, is it going to trip it up ? Or will it read as normal ?

 

it should read normal cuz you got no CEL

 

yea I about to do the bypass trick to since i have to redo my emmission of my b20v and it fail once already b/c I was running a chipped p28 obd2a to obd1. I'm about to put my obd2A LS Ecu back on hopefully I pass this time
