Default LS Swap Questions?

The swap is going into a 00 ex civic coupe. I don't that eg ek stuff. The swap is an OBD I. How much wiring do i have to do? Will my ex ecu work with the swap?

2. What kind of mounts do I need? Anybody got some?
3. What else do I need that is essential?

This is my first B swap. I messed up on my D swap awhile back. J/B weld helped..Thanks in advance for yall help. peace

pointless swap.....you car is obd2b, and the motor is at least 5-8 years older than the car.....this is actully illegal to put a older motor in a newer car....you could put a newer motor in a older car....you will have hella wiring conversion .....well not hella but quite a bit


just find a different (newer) preferably obd2b year of the same motor that you are trying to swap in....
