ok guys. need some help here. i been looking for a 92-95 civic shell for some time now. i finally found a hatch that has a straight body on it. its a theft recovery and its in the back of a local dealership. the owner said he'd sell it to me for couple hundred bucks or so. anyway the thing im coming across here is that i cant find any info on what exactly it takes to get a motor running, as far as wires and lines go. the whole engine bay in this car is stripped. aside from like the fuse box and a few hard lines that are mounted on the firewall. i have a donor 94 prelude with a h22 that i plan on swapping. can i just do away with these lines that are left in the car or should i keep lookin for a shell with this stuff still intact. any help appreciated

 

Sounds like you found what you were looking for.The wiring and plumping can be done with out a big problem.The h22 will take mostly custom stuff and parts from the 'lude.

cool deal. i appreciate it. now onto ...info where i can find out what i need to toss and what i need to swap. is there somewhere i havnt come across yet that might tell me some things. i know ive seen cars with what seems to be almost no wires etc etc and theres the other cars that have engine bays full. im not so new to hondas but im relatively new to swapping. this'll be my first, i know i know...not the best choice but i got the whole donor car for $400 and it still runs. btw im parting the lude if anyone needs parts
