Default installing the b18c?

is there anyone out there who can tell me exactly what i need to do when installing a b18c into a rex? keep in mind it will probably have a different manifold and header (custom). ive heard talk that there is firewall clearence issues... is this true? also what mounts to use? i dont want to be scrapin and i dont want any axle rub (i would also be using a carbon hood, but for which rex? an SiR?). Motor would also be built, im not sure to exactly what specs(CR) but probably sleeved block, forged pistons, and rods(not sure on what brand). lastly are there any problems i should be expect? im lookin to talk to someone who has done this swap before and knows alot about it. Thanks guys!

P.S.: Are there any aftermarket radiators that can be custom fitted to keep her cool? and oh yah i wont be using A/C or power steering... just only the essentials.

i'm puttin in a b18a and i've found next to nothing for wiring guides, but as for clearance, it'll fit right if you use the hasport mounts, and no AC.
go here and look at the swap outlines http://crx.honda-perf.org/
