Got the motor in!
Well... we installed the throttle body and fuel rail while the motor was out. Did a little spot cleaning before we did the harness work, then got the dizzy wired up. Had the radiator and condenser out while we did the swap... had a new radiator for it anyway. Left the intake elsewhere so that's not on there yet. The passenger axle put up a bit of a fight, but I proved the greater between the two of us.
Anyway... here are the pics.
SSAutoChrome header bolted right up... no problems with the exhaust ports.
She's sitting low again. That makes me happy.
You can sort of see the AEM fuel rail, and the TB is hard to see anyway. Had to use an LT-1 TB blade to make that thing work.
Well, I'm pretty damned excited.

Used my old Si tranny, but I have a spare ZC tranny with intermediate shaft in case I blow the crap out of it.
We start it tomorrow... still need to put the radiator and condenser in.

Nice... I just finished my swap (D15B VTEC), nothing like the pride of knowing all the hard work went into it, and then to start it up... Mine went easily too... Except I have no VTEC... But Id rather that then something like an idle problem alot of ppl have with swaps...
