You can put any B series in it, you would just need to swap over the wiring harness and get another ECU or adapter harness.

That is true you can put any B series motor you can get your hands on in your integra but i think it all just comes down to what you want and kind of power you want to put down.

Dont need to switch wiring harness or ECU.. Swap the intake mani, injectors and the oil pump and alternator.... 96+ has a sensor on the oil pump and the 94-95 doesnt.

You obviosly didn't even read my original post, I'm talking about ANY b-series, that's why I said he would have to switch the wiring harness and ecu or get an adapter harness for the ecu. Glad to see you are another idiot that talks before he reads.

could drop a b20 in. won't need to transfer anything but the manifolds. a b20b can be had for pretty much the same cost as an LS. b20z, little more

intake and exhaust manifolds
be sure to ask the specification of the motor. ie, b20b, b20z, jdm, or usdm. knock sensor, or no knock sensor

If you do happen to get one from HMO, when your ordering it you should be talking to Steve. Just tell him what car it's going in to and he'll take care of it.

"it was leaking fuel out of the head" Now that is a new one, never heard that one before.

I agree, although anything is possible, I would look for another opinion.

Question, did the shop pull the head, I was wondering how they knew the head was warped? 94

Exactly what I was thinking ^^. A head doesn't leak fuel lol. And the head can easily be resurfaced, they lied to you about that.

yea i figured but i drove it home from the shop and it was running like **** no power and transmission was shifting high and the motor had no power i was lucky i got to 60 on the highway. and when i would full throttle it it would fall on its face and slow down but if my dad gets another motor i get his old one for doing the swap. and having an extra one laying around wont hurt. might not b bad for lsvtec turbo build or something
