im working on my b16 as well, but im beefing mine up first before the big install, plus im running an auto-box, so it'll be a lil different.
anyway its not hard, but i am a mechanic so dont take my word for it.

Swap is pretty easy if your mechanically inclined and have the right tools.

hey walt, its not that involved of a swap... did you check out the webpages i put up here? also do you have a helms manual??? it details excatly how to take out your engine... as for wiring, just check out the websites or ask questions on here... there are plenty of people with b16 that can help you out...
good luck!
