Default Need help on swapping a b18a1 into a 88 hf crx

Ok look i need anybody and everbody's help. Please lol......
I own a 1991 ls integra with the 1.8liter dohc b18a1 in it. Which sounds all dandy but i cant get a title to the car ive been tryin since november and ive raced it a couple of times and its farely quick the car's interior is perfect and the motor only has 120,000 on it i just put a stage 2 clutch in it. But my main question is how hard would it be to make a hybrid crx considering i have all the parts i would need. My friend has an 88 hf he will sell to me for $300.00 right now it still runs. So i need all the know how of yall out there and quick cuz he has someone looking at the car next week. Just let me know what all i need to do. The way i have it figured is i need to use my ecu, motor mounts, tranny, wiring harness etc. But let me know if it would be worth it. Also my teg i have well the inside looks good but i think my frame may be bent So i would greatly appreciate any feed back on this thanks for your time _kYlE_

you will need to get aftermarket mounts, modify your shift linkage, use your hubs i think, your axles, have to put a dent in the inner fender wall for alternator clearance, cut off the front tranny mount, and maybe a few other things that i'm forgetting. It'd be a good swap, if you think your car is quick now, the crx will be way faster.

Never buy a used car that you can't drive away with, title in hand.

Take the car back and get you money back.
