I have an eg civic with a piss poor vtec-e engine.

I recently acquired a b18c2 engine and gearbox.

It came with the engine wiring harness, ecu and driveshafts.

I am just wondering what else i need to drop this into my civic? shifter linkages? Mounts? Loom modifications? Could anyone do a list up for me please?

I did search. Could not find exactly what i needed.

Your assistance is appreciated.

Cheers, Drew

as long as your EG is a Vti, u can reuse the engine mounts. shift linkages you might want to change it to B18c2's one.

U might need a conversion harness for the loom, depending on which OBD is ur engine to the B18C2, get it checked.

A/C is another story whether you still want to use it or not. same with power steering

B18C2 can go pretty good on a good mod parts and good ECU + good tuning :thumbsup:

SOHC VTEC-E

Honda's next version of VTEC, VTEC-E, was used in a slightly different way; instead of optimising performance at high RPM, it was used to increase efficiency at low RPM. At low RPM, one of the two intake valves is only allowed to open a very small amount, increasing the fuel/air atomization in the cylinder and thus allowing a leaner mixture to be used. As the engine's speed increases, both valves are needed to supply sufficient mixture. A sliding pin, which is pressured by oil, as in the regular VTEC, is used to connect both valves together and allows the full opening of the second valve.
