Ok I just bought a 1993 civic Coupe in May. I used to own a mustang (shhh don't make fun of me) ;) and I never lost to a civic. Now I am making a civic that WILL NEVER lose to a mustang. How hard will it be to put in a B18C5? No powersteering, no nothing. Good idea? Any recommendations.
P.S. I already beat a mustang the other day. Just not good enough for my taste.:rolleyes:

The B18C5 is a relatively easy swap. The only problem comes when you go to wire it up. The OBD1/OBD2 thing can get pretty hecktic. Honestly, I would say the best thing you can do is stay OBD1 and get an ECU burned to match the C5 motor. Otherwise, it is a pretty straight forward install.
