Default type r motor in a 1997 civic ex

i have a few quick questions about swaps. i know that the b16 from a si will fit without too much trouble. but what about the b18 from a type r. has anyone done this before. do you think it would be fairly easy. thanks

all those b series swaps are fairly is if u know what your doing and have the proper tools, mounts, know about obd, and know about all the wiring modifications your gonna have to make. but if u know all that then yes its easy.

if you want a b series swap, i'd wait about a year, k series is the new JDM hotness, and in a year they'll be uber cheap
