Default Going to buy Crx Need help

i am going to buy a crx but it doesn't have a distributer. The engine in the crx i am going to buy is a b-16(either and A or C i forget the code. it is the one with v-tech). The engine i curently have is a b-18 b. Can i put the distributer from my b18 into this car i am going to buy? -thanks for the help

most likely not without mods... the B18b is most likely a OBD1 distributer... and the B16 is pre-obd.

thanks for the advice how much is the distributer you have for sale and will it work in the car i want. Also the car is 3300 and i want to put another 700 in the car what are the best mod i should do. the car alredy has suspension mods. coil overs and shocks. I was thinking i should put the b16 head on my b18 block, I heard that was good. But my friend tells me that i shouldn't do that because it leaks oil or something. any my long term goal fro this car is a drag turbo. any help is appricated thanks.

To figure out what to do next: just read alot on honda tech.

The LS-vtec you have been thinking about doing is a very good NA motor. But, an even better motor to boost, due to the compression being under 10.0:1. Go to http://www.c-speedracing.com/h...c.php to do some reasearch on that mod.

its a good motor LS/VTEC as long as you build it right... but if you are in a budget just stick w/ the b16.... $700 good mods are I/H/E ... or p/p the b16 head and get more aggressive cams... that depends on you though... i dont really know what you want to get all out racing or dependable daily driver... going LS/VTEC should run you est. $500-$1000... $1000 + if you want the motor build right.. i mean taking it to the professionals...

Dude youre retarded with your budget just stick with engine in the car. Plus you wont be able to sell your integra if you remove the engine idiot.
