The swap is finally underway!
 
A couple friends and I started on the "Project X" 5G Civic last night. We're swaping in a B16s sir with a couple mods right now. It was our first swap and so far its going pretty much without a hitch (knock on wood) except for the shift linkage which gave us a little trouble but haynes is a good helper. We started at around 7:00 pm and finally got it out at 3:25 am which I thought was pretty good for 3 n00bs as far as swaps go. I will be posting a couple pics in a lil while on our progress. Maybe even a little video. Thanks to everyone thats helped me get the info I needed to get this far. Peace Out for now. :thumbup:

Heh, a kid down the street from me has his own workshop in his garage. All he needs is a lift, and he would have everything.

Once you get used to doing swap, it's a lot faster. I'm down to being able to get an engine out of a civic in under 4 hours alone. If I have help, it's way faster. Congrats! Hope everything goes well, and it starts first try! That's always the best feeling!
