Default What's needed for B16A to B18C1 swap?

Just curious what's needed to replace my b16a for a B18c1.

I know i need the wiring conversion and a 4 wire O2 sensor... but, what else is needed for the B18C to work that you wouldn't need to get a B16A to work?

I have currently for the B16A:
- axles from 90-93 integra
- shift linkage from 90-93 integra (cut to length)
- radiator hoses needed for B16A
- B-series hasport mounts


I'm about to pick up a running, complete car '95 GSR and have pretty much everything in at my disposal to swap into my CRX.

Why not keep it in the GSR? Sell the Gsr as a whole and maybe go h22?

Just throwing ideas, Im assuming youre getting the car for cheap if you wanna do all this for the 10 extra hp

IAB Solenoid valve wiring must be added as well.

plus you'll need a gsr ecu of course.

You probably want the extra torque, but to me swapping the 16 out for the 18c is kind of a waste of time. But.. if you do go 18c then get rid of that damn intake manifold, those things suck. You dont need it, you'll run better without it, just get a chipped p28 and haul ***. Our 4th gen H22a came with them, and they got yanked the hell out. Car runs alot stronger without them.
