use a 92-95 ex sohc wiring harness. b18c1 motor, tranny, axles, obd-1 p72, obd-1 b-series mounts, and a 92 is already wired for vtec so your good. goes right in.

you will still have to wire the knock sensor , also you will have to wire the iab's also i would just use the gsr wire harness other wise you will have to modify the single cam one.

true, but oddly, when i had mine, i did not need to wire up the knock, and never did, but when i spun all my bearings and had knocks, vtec wouldn't kick in. i guess it either has another sensor or is already hooked up. i am still baffeled.
