Yo! sup sup, yea i just bought a 75 honda CVCC 4speed, its soooo clean it was in a guys garage for 15 years, doesnt run, but man the body and interior are straight butter! Im planning on totally restoring it, im going to toss the motor though because its weak and has no power, so i want to swap a b16 in it, i know it will take work but i just need some pointers on mods or wiring obsticles i might have, can anyone help me out with this swap?

 

That's not a swap man. That's a complete rebuild. Custom motor mounts, shift linkage, axles, tranny mounts. You're not going to be able to find suspension componnets, and you're going to need to beef it up with the much heavier engine up front.

Might as well mount the ecu wherever you want, cause it will have nothing to do with the chassis wiring harness.

That's just a quick perspective, but it's a start, like I said, it's not a "Swap" you're engineering a solution. But do it right, and I guarantee you, you get photo shoots

Do some measuring first. Those cars are very narrow. Not to sure that motor tranny combo will even fit between the tires let alone room for axles.

Not impossible, but maybe expensive.
