Default LS swap into CRX

I'm going to be helping out a friend in a couple weeks do a swap. He's getting a complete powertrain from a 91 Integra (Axles, mounts, harness, ecu etc.), it's going to go into a 91 CRX. I need to know what mounts, harness, and axles we need to use.

which model crx is it? if its dx, you gonna need to do the mpfi conversion...if its the si then your ok....you can use the axles and the ecu from the teg. you probably will need the b-series mounts for it. you can use the teg harness or the si harness. again if its dx then you will need to convert it to mpfi for it to work. pr4 or pm6 ecu will work.

the ONLY parts that you can re-use from the DA would be the following to help with the motor swap:


SEARCH SEARCH AND SEARCH.



that said.
complete engine long block, transmission, rear transmission mount bracket only, axles, ecu, distributor, intake and exhaust manifold. none of the motor mounts will work. do some research

Hey seriously. I thought we could use normal b series mounts? I bought a crx with an ls swap and thought the motor mounts were probably the oem DA motor mounts? Am I wrong? Could it be using some ebay type of motor mount?

Jesus people, THIS IS ALL IN THE FAQ.

These kinds of questions are why there is barely any life left in the EF section. Everyone wants to be spoon fed 6 year old information without looking for it.

if its an si, then use the da t bracket, get any set of GOOD motor mounts for a b series swap into an ef. get the obd0 to obd1 conversion harness and hook up the ecu and you should be gewt. oh, and if you use your b series shift linkage, cut it 2 inches and weld 'er back up
