LOOK here.. I have a Q for engine swap.

I got a Q for yah. Aight I just got my hands on a yummy b16 out of a 97 delsol with 38k on it for 1700.00, thats everything you can think of axles, engine, tranny, ecu all and then some. Now I want to do the swap. Now my knowledge of cars is extensive on hondas but not hands on wise. Meaning I have all the facts but no experience. Also is the 97 delsol obd2? Im sure it is so now what do I do? I got it for a killer price and it is sitting in my basement waiting for its unleashment to my sol. If I go buy a helms n get an engine lift will I be aight? I really would like to say I put it in myself rather then paying someone, so its not a money issue more of a self gratitude thing. I just am in need of some info.... ANYONE's info... Will I be ok with a helms? are there any wiring mods I need to do to it? Mine had sohc vtec so no vtec modding.. thanks for the help fellas...

well im not really sure how the swap will work check out this site for some helpful pointers: www.honda-perf.org you may need new mounts and some other lil doodads, but that site should explain it all to you.

Definitly get a Helms. It is the best investment you can make as far a dis/assembly goes.

everyone will look but when will someone respond.. cmon honda tech heads what problems will I run into putting an obd2 b16 into my 94 delsol si.??????? wiring I mean..Ecu plug in that sort of thing...

I know with civics OB1 is from 92-95 but your Delsol has the same engine as the Civic SI Im guessing its OB1 just because of the year but they did use that engine in the later civics 96+ so it may be OB2

give 703-440-8705 a call and ask them if they know thats NU Image in VA

worse comes to worse you will just have to add a few wires the hardest thing about your swap is when you get it in and find a few sensers broke... pain in the butt stuff

your engine "should" come with the engine mounts still on it if not you will need a set of GSR or Delsol VTec engine mounts Im pretty sure www.hasport.com sells them

and if you do need to add wires for OB2 Im also pretty sure hasport sells a wiring kit for it or pick up the old SCCM that had the wire diagram

good luck on the swap if worse comes to worse you can just give me the engine I could use a backup trans/engine =)
