Stock B18C5 into an EG

HiroshimaScreamer · Post by **HiroshimaScreamer** » Tue Feb 12, 2008 9:23 am

Heya everybody, I'm looking to put a B18C5 motor into my Civic Ferio 180i EG which currently runs a B18B3 motor. Has anybody on here done such a conversion previously and if so what are the pros and cons of such a mod? Would I be correct in assuming that I can use my current engine mounts, gearbox and side shafts? I know I would have to get a HP fuel pump for such a conversion and more than likely a stand alone management for VTEC.
Any tips, suggestions and help in this matter will be appreciated!
Peace

But if you're able to put in a B18C1, you're able to put in a B18C5, right?

Yep about $2000 worth of differences.
