it depends what year your car is, and what year engine you are going to put into it.

it would be easier to get an engine that is the same year as your car, but it can be done. the 96 has a hydrolic tranny and your car is cable. also your car is pre-obd and the 96 is obd 2.

hmmmm or drop the b16a1...that would be better OBDII to OBDI isn't that hard but it is a headache. Hydro to cable coversion another not hard thing but still a headache. Best bet?? buy the B17 or a B16a1 both are OBDI and cable tranny..if you have any other question don't hesitate to call us at the shop..AUTOSOLUTION 757-306-8686

Very good service over the phone.
Chris, your exhaust fab guy was really understanding. He gave me a great price... I might be hitting you (the shop) up sooner than I planned.
