Icon6 b18a swap help!

i want to do a b18a swap into my 91 si. does anyone know what parts i would need to get in order for it to fit. i know i would need a shorter shift linkage, but how much shorter. and i also know the mounts on the motor wont fit either, but does anyone know what mounts i would need to get?
and i know i need to convert the obd0 to obd1. is there anything im forgetting?

any help on this would be great, im kinda an amateur with all this stuff. but im learning

Thanks!

You don't HAVE to convert to obd1, you can run an obd0 b18a distributor and obd0 pr4 ECU and not have to convert. That is really up to you.

Personally I would get the car running obd0 first and then convert to obd1 later, so if there are any problems with it, the troubleshooting will be easier. So if the car runs great obd0, you convert to obd1, you know it's something in the wiring.

What kind of advice are you looking for? Like which mounts to get or what?

You can purchase everything you will need from www.innovativemounts.com.

Which mounts you buy, is going to correspond to what your budget is. I would suggest Hasport or Innovative.

The FAQs are from people who've done it and been nice enough to catalog it for you.

Jesus.
