Wassup I am about to do a swap in my 98 HB but I am really new to swapping motors. What is EXACTLY do I need other than:

Motor/Tranny/Axles/ECU

What mounts do I need? What harness do I need? Shiftlinkage? ETC? Thanks. BTW I did a search and couldnt find ****.

 

I did a search in the archives and found over 8 pages worth of info by just typing in "ls swap".

Basicly you'll need a complete 96-up LS swap. Should have most everything you need.

There are so many topics out there, do a little leg work!

 

actually u might want to try searching "b18b swap" or "b18 swap" because if i'm not mistaken, the search engine on here wont pick up 2 letter words. well that's been my experience with it, and i use it a lot!

<------keeps that number over there down

 

You need 99-00 SI driver side motor bracket(below timing belt cover) and rear tranny bracket. You can use LS shiftlinkage. You can keep your other stock mounts. You can use your civic harness.

what about for eg? i am planning to swap a 95 ls into a 92 hb, any info on that?

 

motor, trans, axles, ecu, shift linkage, 99-00 Si rear tranny bracket and driver side bracket, use the teg mount for the front tranny mount (not the top tranny mount - that all civic pieces). use your civic harness as you will only need to extend a couple wires and call it a day.

 

So I guess no major mods need or no Major wiring required right? for all the answers fellas. 1

 

nope. very straight forward. there is one thing i wonder about tho. an issue i read about with a fuel tank pressure switch with liek 97 and up b18b swaps. i think someone on here has had that problem and the cure for it was an ecu from a different year. not sure which year. i think the member named 97 hb had the prob.

 

thanks for the help fellas....................thanks Deviant1

 

no prob

 

Yes I got that cel. Doesn't affect performance, but the light gets anoying. I heard that you can use any jdm ecu and it won't throw the code. I also heard the 96 ecus did not have that code. I haven't tried either because ecus are just too damn much money .
