I already know a lot about the motors, but I had a few questions.

1)will a hydro tranny bolt up to a b16a1 without modification?

2)what things would I need to change on the b16a1 to make it work with a obd II ecu? (I already know the injectors need to be changed, but what else?)


what I am basically getting at is, what would I need to change to make a b16a1 into a b16a2 and work in my 96 civic, excluding the permanent differences such as the vtec oil squirters in the head and the compression ratio etc. I don't want to convert my car into non-obd; I want to convert the engine into an obd II.

I want peoples opinion on wether it's worth it money-wise to get a b16a1 longblock and then a hydro tranny and switch stuff to obd II, or to get a b16a2 and then buy a hydro tranny. I don't plan on buying a complete swap because for now, i just want the longblock so I can start building it.
