B16A Swap Shopping List

B16a Motor (1st Generation)
Transmission (Cable clutch) Y1, J1, S1, or YS1
ECU (PR3 or PW0, but I'd recommend the PR3)
Bolt-In mount kit
Shift Linkage (either cut and weld your own, or buy one)
Conversion Wiring Harness (has 4 plugs)
Engine harness (save your stock one for this)
Axles (any 90-93 Integra Axles will do)
Intermediate shaft (in case your engine didn't come with one, '90-'93 Integra)
Radiator Hoses (check www.HAsport.com , I believe one is a '92 GSR, and one is a '90 GSR)
Throttle Cable ('90-'93 Integra)
Rear motor mount bracket ('90-'93 Integra, DO NOT FORGET THIS! Also, order the 2 motor side bolts as well)

Most of this stuff can easily be found at a junkyard, or bought from your local Honda/Acura dealer. I have a decent hookup so I went through the dealer. Now is also a good time to replace the timing belt, water pump, clutch, oil filter. All of those besides the clutch you get for a Del-SOl VTEC. The clutch is for a 1990 Integra (because of the cable transmission) Also, don't forget simple things like oil (I use Mobil 1 Synthetic), Tranny Fluid (Factory Honda Manual Trans fluid), and Radiator Coolant/Antifreeze.
