Default first ef hatch build.

I have a 1991 EF four speed hatch. I think it's an HF. What all do i need to swap an LS or B20? computer, shift linkages, harness, motor mounts, cv's etc.....?

First the HF was only a CRX. You have what's known as the STD. You would need to put it in, and have the corresponding ecu, your stock harness can work, but you also need to convert to MPFI. Mounts, linkage, and axles. Check out the faq, it's like beating a dead horse back alive.

They came from the factory like that, more than likely yours was swapped to a 5 speed.

Im pretty sure the STD model would need teg, si or ex knuckles in order to accept b-series axles
