Good luck with the swap but i wanted to add i installed a jdm d15b on a friends a/t d15b usdm and the non vtec trans shifted right when vtec would kick in so he had to get a vtec a/t so solve the issue

there is no such thing as a usdm d15b. your thinking of something else. the d15b was jdm only.

I would have never imagined that this engine would have been so hard to find. I thought the hardest decision would be which one to pick. The only one that is anything close to it that I've been finding are D15B 3 Stage VTEC engines which are for EK models & will include CVT transmissions which I don't think will be able to work in an EG. I've asked on local forums... http://forums.trinituner.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=245403 as well on other US Civic forums... http://civic-eg.com/viewtopic.php?t=9460. Just thought I'd ask here to see what ClubCivic.com thought of trying this kinda swap.
