you can use an LS computer just as well as the B20 and the LS are more readily available, Just get an OBDII P75 or OBDI P74/75 and conversion harness (Thats what I reccomend), I also reccomend a Hasport Mount kit and you can use axles from any 94+ Integra (LS/RS/GSR/whatever) or 99-00 Si axles.... Good luck with your project and if you need anymore help just post....

Why would he need a hasport mount kit ?

Oem civic lx mounts will work just fine.
Just purchase a rear 99 DOHC b16 mount bracket (big metal bracket that bolts to tranny & mount)
Also dont forget to purchase the proper throttle cable.
I personally use type-r throttle cables & type-r throttle cable brackets on my ek swaps.

For axles use 94-00 integra axles from napa or discount.

Make sure you get a hold of bseries shift linkage. I preffer integra gsr shiftlinkage.

If later on down the road you need stiffer mounts, buy a place racing top drivers side motor mount & some energy suspension mount inserts.

Hasport mounts are great but very expensive and primarely not for daily driving.

Concerning wiring, use the civic lx wiring harness & rewire IACV to a 2 plug along with repining it. For more info check my sig.

so just use the stock mounts, minus the rear tranny mount and for that just use a 99-00 SI rear mount? and as far as the axels go, will any B-series axels work with any B-series tranny? and also will they all work with my spindals, as far as the splines go? and for the wiring the IACV is the only thing needed to be rewired? and will a LS or b20 ECU just plug into my Factory harness? if so, would it be better to convert it to OBD1? thanx for all the info everyone...
