I can now vouch for hmotorsonline.com.........they live up to the hype. Motor arrived super bubble wrapped and foam wrapped strapped down tight. All sensors intact and the motor is clean as hell! You could rub anywhere bare handed and not get a thing on your hands. *i tried Only bad thing is the alternator belt. its hella frayed. But that was expected anyway.

Me and my brother have decided to attempt an install ourselves. Ive already had local shop horror stories with the beginning of this build. So this weekend we're getting down and dirty. here's some quick engine shots i did after working 12 hours.

yeah, ive been looking at tons of write ups on it and it doesnt seem too difficult. Just looks like there's a lot to it.

ive just never done it before and i have to wire up vtec too. i have a dx chassis

 

[pceg6]

love the rebuild man best of luck with it cant wait to see more pics

 

[CHILD]

woohoo!!! just finished the swap like half an hour ago. No vtec unfortunately, because im going to buy the subharness from hasport, but its up and running. One issue ive noticed is, i have a really low idle at running temp. The throttle body doesnt have a TPS, just an IACV....so do you think i should swap my throttle body out for the one from my b18b to solve the problem?

ill get a couple of pics up soon before someone posts that "this thread is worthless without pics" thing

The first start up, started up just fine and then leaked oil everywhere. I removed a bolt near the cam seal and use that area for hoisting the engine into the bay and forgot to put it back. ooops

 

[CivicALC]

[ImportFan1]

[oddeb707]
