mani will not work, yes the motor will fit using integra motor mounts and a B series tranny. you will most likly need an OBD2a to obd 1 conversion harness and use an OBD 1 ECU.

 

any links out there to help me swap?
also, what does an ls swap go for?
with a turbo, should be alot more power than my d series sohc right?
and a helluva lot cheaper than a dohc vetec, i hope
any help or comments are welcome
if im wrong.....tell me!

stick with the SOHC and blow it up then get a B series.

 

where are you located anyway?

 

ive gotta head gasket leak now
overheating some
so im weighing my options
i like the power that ive got in my sohc now
i like to hit the mountain roads more than drag racing and this setup pulls strong the top end.......i have now take off
man.....DECISIONS!
ty, jman

 

im about an hour north of atlanta ga
in the mountains
where you at onyx?

 

umm replace the headgasket it only costs $50 or so. a LS swap will cost around 800-2000 depending on whats included and the fucknut selling it.

 

here ya
what should i do about the head....change the valves out or are they fine?
never over heated more than 3/4s the way up and i shut her down quick
i know i have to get it decked
what are some inexpensive things to do now that im tearing her down
the motor has around a 100k on it.....the car has 68k...original got ate up in a 12-13 psi battle!
lol

i doubt you need to do anything to the head just slap a new gasket on there and your off.
