no problems. bang out the driver wall for the alternator... make sure you have the computer and dizzy the same obd, whether you decide to keep it obd0 or convert it to obd1.

oh, and search a little more on b series engine swaps.... theres definitely plenty of information on this forum

nope better start lookin for a tranny, axles, half shaft, motor and tranny mounts, alternator, and linkage for the tranny as for a ecu i only swapped a ls before n i converted to obd1 and used a obd1 pr4, im not sure if that would run a b20 the best but it should run it, and if i remember i changed my front hubs so integra axles will work

If you can get your hands on a jmd b18c type r trans you would be king. High rmps at cruising I like gsr trans also but my favorite is a hybrid b16 trans with ls final drive
