HOW TO: 96-00 Honda Civic D16Y7 To JDM B20B Engine Swap

[@tofu7397]

Love seeing videos like this. Keep the younger generation and new enthusiasts interested by showing them the way

[@vtec3070]

Thank you 🖤

Where did you lift it from to get the car that high?

[@jrsek362]

Ek swpped b series finally lolz took me about 2 weeks to do this swap by myself lolz a lot of homework and KZbin vids Dana Dana Dane you da man 🤙🏽

[@dior9962]

my ek swapped b20b doesnt want to stay turned on it starts strong and then dies off immediately after

[@danielfbej]

​@@dior9962have you checked timing your idle air control valve or any leaks in the intake system? I would also check for fuel.

[@yungblaze223s]

Took me two weeks as well. Came down to crv p/s bracket and the passenger side axle. Otherwise I had everything else from an Ls integra 😂🎉

[@Kingdomgarage1]

I'm having issues also bogging when I take off and when it's sitting and I rev sounds good any idea

[@liamtomlin5151]

A couple things I noticed which I thought I could chime in on: In my EK B20 swap I used a 94-01 Integra shift linkage and had no issues You can use all your stock single cam mounts so long as you use a 2 bolt post mount, make sure it's the short one! Thanks again for the excellent video as usual Dana!

[@adventureswithbuna6207]

I just got a b18c1 whole swap and I have a ex shell with an hx motor. Your saying the linkage that came with the gsr will fit in my ex shell?

[@liamtomlin5151]

[@adventureswithbuna6207]

Did you keep your ac and ps

[@liamtomlin5151]

@@adventureswithbuna6207 I retained my AC with a CRV P7J AC bracket and just bolted my single cam ac compressor to that bracket. Power steering is a little more tricky

[@danielstephens4420]

@@liamtomlin5151 steering is easy. Use si pump and b series bracket.... If it's a p75 head you can use the ek pump with crv bracket.

My son and I are building a 96 hatch. We started with the B18 swap but had a boat anchor for a motor. Got a JDM B20 and poked it in. Edelbrock intake manifold, Skunk2 Alpha header, AEM dual chamber intake. Car actually moves pretty good! Car also has every suspension bushing replaced along with various Skunk2/Meghan Racing components. Just needs body/paint although it is still presentable. I tell anyone who wants to work on a car for the first time to buy a Honda, so nice to work on and very affordable. This is the first car I've actually built from the ground up having put my dirty mitts on literally every bolt in the car. Awesome video, sorry for the rant.

can always count on static to do motor swaps great job bro

I wanna do this with my 96 DX but had no idea where to start or what to do. This video was extremely helpful by giving me an idea of what I'll need and the work that would need to be done. Don't think I'll be able to do this since I have zero experience but at least I'm aware now, lmao.

[@GIZZMOTORSPORTS]

It sounds like the T belt is off a tooth. That’ll make it rough at idle and smooth out as you rev it.

[@04zayy]

was looking for this video 2 mouths ago lmfao , finished my swap a couple weeks ago , good video 👍

[@danielstephens4420]

I've done a lot of B series swaps. You can use the D series motor mounts all of them. All you need is that t bracket and the driver side engine post mount. The Integra shift linkage works great if you get the one from a Type R it's usually gold or the GSR. It works way better than the EM1 shift linkage for sure.

[@danielstephens4420]

@@Ahsangill19 no

[@danielstephens4420]

All B series Transmissions have to use a B series shift linkage and all d-series transmissions have to use a D series shift linkage

Use the torque mounts on an Ek. If you don’t the driver side mount bolt holes on the frame tend to rip off if you don’t.

Dam beautiful work. I know for a fact 96-98 civics have a hard time staying alive. Also fa5 civic will always be lost. Idk why but those years always develop a problem being crash or motor blow out. I think those years are cursed.

[@davinzickefoose6051]

My first video ive seen from you. Amzing work keep it up!

[@NickSabella]

if you follow the wires on the jumper harness, you'll see most jumper harnesses merge the a12 and a14 so that you don't have to do the iacv conversion on the ecu side. I noticed this on my harness after I did the conversion

[@jrocrep209]

Always great videos 👍

[@williamking9200]

Judging from the headlights it's a 96, I don't think the 98 had the bubble on the corner, but I could be wrong and the smoother headlight was on a 99. I've owned like 20 Civics since 2004 but somehow now I mess with v8 Mustangs but still love my Hondas and have tons of knowledge.. Fastest I ever dropped a b20 into a DC Teg was 45 minutes but that was without taking out the old engine however I used a shift linkage I got from a buddy and the shifter sat to high forward in the console so I might of had a non b series one...nice job man

[@tofu7397]

I always go off of the "bubble" or the bumpers (99-00 can fit fogs in the bumper)

@@noobatnothing my mistake- dc4- b to k integra. Like what could be kept on harness if anything, what needs extended/changed, what needs done with shift linkage ect.
