95' b18c1 into 2000 civic?????
I have a few questions about a USDM 1995 b18c1 obd1 engine I am looking to swap into my 2000 civic:
1. Will the integra axles and half shaft fit?
2. Since the engine is obd 1, I need to change it to obd 2. Do I need to get a new obd 2 distributor from an integra or can I use the one from my d16y8?
3. Is it possible to use a obd2 ecu from a newer integra with the b18c1 engine?
4. Anything else I need to know about getting this engine to work properly in my car?

1. Yes... use the same ones included with the swap.
2. It's easier to change the swap over to OBD-1 (get an ECU harness... check sig below
) as OBD-2 electronics and OBD-1 electronics are the same, just use different plugs for the most part. You can use the OBD-1 distributor and just change the plugs out to an OBD-2 plug if you need to... samething. Your D16Y8 distributor won't fit the GSR head.
3. Yes, but the OBD-2 ECU will be looking for all of extra OBD-2 sensors that the OBD-1 motor swap doesn't have or use. So unless you add all of those extra sensors, you're going to get a lot of CELs and ECU codes thrown.
4. You need to change the driver side engine bracket (bolted to the block w/3 14mm bolts) to a 99-00 Civic Si bracket, and use the 99-00 Civic Si rear tranny bracket and passenger side brackets. Linkage & axles will work just fine.

If I change to an obd2 ecu and an obd2 distributor, what other sensors or obd2 stuff, will I need?
Also, do you have any lsd trannies for this swap. I will need a transmission to complete the swap.
