Default Ls swap in an 89 civic sedan

Was up. Ive been tryin to sell my 89 civic sedan for a while, but sense it has a body kit on it it didnt sell/trade. I recentlly came across an ls motor and cable tranny and for $300 i couldnt pass it up. Im going to rebuild it but what i need to know is what all to i need to complete the swap? its just a motor and tranny and it came out of a 90-91 integra.

Thanks

ps what is the best ecu for this swap

You will need the Integra hubs as well. A PR4 is best for the swap, since it is the DOHC Ecu meant for the LS. If you look in the forsale section, there is mounts and linkages for a B-series EF for sale, might wanna take a look at that.

No problem, I'm sure I can find some swapping links for you if you want, but most of the times its better to just get in there with someone who knows what there doing to supervise. It's best to learn by doing it yourself and learning from your mistakes so its stuck in your head!
