Re: some engine swap guidance
The stock wiring Harness will work fine... It's pretty basic.
As for the mounts, I'd get on Honda-Tech and start searching the classifieds. Or Ebay works good as well. Search for either Hasport, or Avid. Both Companies are great. I would seriously suggest swapping a different Transmission on while you're at it, the LS Transmission is longer than eternity... B16, or GSR Transmission will work just fine. You're looking at about $500 for the transmission once it's all said and done between shipping. Could be less, could be substantially more... It just depends. Our LS Civic Hatchback (It's now H22A) ran 14.9 Quarter Mile ET... Stock internals, stock head. The only modifications were the GSR Transmission, Megan Header, DC Sports exhaust and a Short Ram Intake... That's it. So expect running into the 15's or so. It's a pretty basic swap, and it will be a good learning experience for sure. As for the D-Series into the LS... Don't even bother, it would hardly move the car. Swap the LS into the Civic, and sell the Integra Shell. Save up some money for a VTEC head ![]() Good luck man -Wes

Re: some engine swap guidance
Use the LS harness, it plugs into both the Civic shocktower plugs, and the motor. If you use the Civics harness, the distibutor and injectors (i believe) are going to be different and need to be replugged to fit.

Hmmm... We didn't have that big of an issue with it. Stock harness worked just fine.

Re: some engine swap guidance
No, it isn't hard, but why modify the Civics if you have the Integras harness to use anyway? The questions is, was yours a OBD I LS, or OBD II? If it was OBD I, than the Civic harness is fine, if it is OBD II the plugs are different, and it's a LOT easier to use the Integra harness since it plugs right into the Civic.

For your OBD II LS into your OBD I Civic, use the LS harness.
