Default Totalled Integra GS

Well... This is the story... I have or lets say I "had" a 1997 Integra GS. I was smashing down a hill with a little bit of gravel. I was stupid. Going 90 trying to take the curve on. My car began to lost traction towards the cliff i said, hell nah, so i stepped on the brakes and tried to countersteer. stupid of me. the car ended up snap oversteering doing 2 360 degree circles on the road and hitting the opposite lane's rail. now my car is totalled. The engine and tranny is in good condition though haha, only has 114k miles on it, nothing happen to tranny or engine.

So my question is, is it possible to put my b18b1 obd2 into a 1994 civic body? Well I know it's possible but is it legal?

The law says that you can't put a motor that is older than the car that it's going into. Therefore, the engine you're putting in is newer than the car and is legal.
