1993 Civic with B series engine. Retain or delete power steering?
I just swapped a B series motor into a 1993 Civic. I haven't made it to the junkyard yet to figure this out on my own, so I am asking if anyone else has some insight.
Will the OEM B series power steering bracket off an Integra, CRV, etc work to fit a power steering pump off of a D series motor onto the B series motor? Or do I have to swap the pump also? No big deal if I do, just gotta know so I can grab the pump too.
Otherwise, I'm cutting the hoses and looping it or something.
I've driven a car with the power steering not operational. It's not bad, just if it's going to be easy to keep it, may as well.

You need an Integra or Del Sol Vtec bracket. (upper bracket depends on what head was used, bottom brackets are all the same. Stock civic bolts up fine.
When my 97 EJ8 was a single cam, not having power steering didn't really bother me. When I B swapped it, my outlook changed. I didn't realize the weight difference it made also making it harder to turn. I used a EM1 power steering pump and the stock LS bracket that was still on my motor. I have power steering and complete B series A/C in my car and wouldn't have it any other way I love it.
