Need help!! B1 head on A1 block
I have a B18b1 head on a B18a1 block and i just swapped it in and the motor runs fine but at around 5000 rpm it doesnt really go any higher while driving. When in neutral the motor will rev as high as you want. Once its in gear going down the road you cant get anymore than like 5000. I have no clue what is going on it just feels like it is "taching" out at 5 grand. I had a b1 block in before and it didnt do this. i put the a1 block in and now its doing it. Any suggestions??

Get a ls ecu, when I got my ls swapped into my car I ran a 99 Civic EX (d16y8) ecu for about 9 months and it wouldn't rev past 5000. Finally bought a conversion harness and ECU and ran like a dream.
