I have a 2001 5 spd crv that I want to put a b16 Vtec head on to.Please forgive my newbie questions but I want to get all my parts together before I start the swap. I have a 37820-p73-003 ecu from a 98+ Jdm type r swap I bought from TigerJapanese engines.If it helps to identify it, it's missing the B pinout portion.Does anyone know what pinout ecu my crv has? I already have a B16 Vtec head that needs a basic valve seat resurfacing to get them to seal tight. I have a golden eagle conversion kit for the head swap. I believe I will need a b20 head gasket and a type r water pump. I'm missing my exhaust manifold or ebay header....can I reuse the stock B20 manifold? It is a AWD so I know I will have to fabricate the S bend around the tranny. If I leaving anything important out, please let me know. Thanks

 

You need a jumper harness for the new ecu. Your right, when it comes to the block you use the head gasket that goes with the block. The header... I would modify a type r one.
