I have an LS/vtec engine in my basement. It is a B18B1 bottem end and a B16 head. I just finished pulling my d16 out of the car. Its an 89 honda CRX dx but i have already done the MPFI converstion. I am wondering what it is that i need to get the car running. I know i need shift linkage, mounts, tranny, axles, distributor, most other bolt on for the engine. but what am i missing? what ecu do i need and do i need a whole new wiring harness. if not what can i used from the old engine (like connectors and sensors, if possible) i know this is asking alot but i have never done this swap and a list of everything would be appreciated. thanx guys.

You will need an ecu to match the head that you are using (be it OBD0, OBD1, etc.). You should just use your existing harness, and go from there. Essentially, you are going to be taking the same steps you would if you were doing a B-series swap. There is a ton of info archived on this site.

 

u need a pr3 ecu or pw0 ecu....or u can used ls ecu but with modification

 

Thanx for the knowledge. anything else other then the ECU that I will need that maybe not the same as the B16 swap?
