Default 89 Honda civic dx installation of a B series Question!

Im looking at buying a motor from this website...


http://www.hmotorsonline.com/s...gines

Would item # 30003 ( the B16a 92-93 integra (XSi) ) fit into the 89 civic dx easily with the hasport motor mounts?

Would I be able to "tell" a big difference buying the LSD tranny and is it worth $400 extra?

Other than 10hp, 2 torque and 0.2 compression, what is the difference between item # 30003 and item # 30002 and would item # 30002 be a better buy.

converting to obd-1 SUCKS. get the Si-R with LSD, and yes its worth it if you have a built motor

COnverting to obd 1 is easy. YOu can buy a jumper harness for like 120 dollars from jason on this board.

And all you need is a 4 wire o2 sensor and obd1 computer and distributor.

But you get all the with your obd1 swap. sir2 motors have a better intake manifold and head flows more and does not have that cast crap and those junk old school cams like the first gen obd 0 motors.

See, I just noticed last week I was given a Xsi motor with the YS1 tranny. Other then having to buy a new clutch disk since I had bought one for the 90-91 already (Xsi is from 92-93) I thought that was the only difference. Then I looked at this topic and noticed the Xsi has 170hp. :D

It does say JDM OBD1 on that website, but it still used the PR3 ECU. And it's still 2 1-wire O2 sensors not a 4-wire O2 sensor like on the OBD-1 stuff. And the distributor I got on there is a white plug. Also there was the plug for the resister box which I don't think would be used with a regular OBD1 ECU.

can anyone confirm this? Is it that in the 92-93 JDM integra they kept OBD-0??
