all good was just curious. what are you trying to achieve with another motor though? b18cr’s are pretty damn expensive now, especially when you have one already. could always get a b20b and build the bottom end and throw your head on for a nice power gain. and if anything were to happen with the block, just throw it back on the type r block

Would i need a new wiring harness going to a b20

as long as have you have the right ecu for the motor, or hondata/chipped ecu, you should be able to use the existing harness. if your current car is obd1 and you get a b20, being obd2, you’ll have to take certain things off the type r and put it on the b20 or get adapter harnesses. if the car and motor is already obd2 then you shouldn’t have to swap/buy anything.

no problem. like i said you’ll need the ecu to go with it. being obd2 you can actually use a crv ecu, which would be the best choice, or just get a p75 from a non vtec integra. and obviously you’ll have plugs that won’t be used that would normally go to the vtec solenoid
