putting D15b7 into my STD hatch

[BLU CIVIC]

i'm sure this is redundant

i recently brought a d15b7 out of a 95 dx to replace the d15b1 that has a blown head gasket......the guy gave me the engine, tranny, axles, shift linkage, motor mounts, intake manifold, header and downpipe, and entire wiring harness for $100. the thing is that it has a hydro tranny and is obd1. i figure that i have everything i need except the ecu.

here's my question....can i put this set-up in my car using the hydro tranny and convert my car over to obd1?? i know that it is possibe...but i don't know everything that is envolved and i don't know if i'm able to use that tranny also

thanx for the help

u can always run the hydro lines cause i dont think hasports came out with the cable to hydro for the d series. converting to obd1 isnt that hard, people sell conversion harnesses. like u say its possible but if you want to spend the money and time doing it.

also i heard that a 5th gen head on a hf block is the shit, good for like 15s or soemthing liek that cause suppose to yield mad compression, idk something i heard

this is a dx....haven't heard that about the HF head....


ok...ami already told me about the tranny....but itz always good to have a second opnion now i gotta find a conversion harness

this is the guy from honda-tech everyone always recommeneds. i will be getting one from him and ami got hers from him also.

I am a satisfied customer as well... definately get one of these harnesses. Very cool guy and he is a wealth of knowledge to help with the wiring headaches.

it says my car needs to be mpfi.....so i guess i just need the resistor box and get a dx/lx ecu........can't i use the ex ecu??

NEVERMIND.....vtec engine

the d15b7 is basically an obd0 engine, even though technically its OBD1. Use a PM6 ECU and wire in an injector resistor box. You can even use the OBD1 injectors as long as you have the resistor.

that sounds cool.....but i have to find a wire harness b/c i don't think i can use the b7 harness....

but i have a guy that might trade me a PM6 ecu, resistor box, si intake manifold and injectors for the b7 wiring harness.....hopefully he agrees

[91civicDXdude]

use the B7 intake manifold, and also you'll have to get an OBD0 MPFI Distributor.

So I Can Use The Intake Manifold From The B7....cool.....now I Just Need A Wiring Harness From A 88-91 Civic Si
