yeah once lx-incredible gets the piece it will be put on and tested then we will go from there. i'm really excited for this too.

I really like the progress on this
So let me see what we got so far...
1. adapter plate
2. and key (extension for the key)
3. does it need to be re keyed?
it seems as if the extention makes up for the key difreneces... so its all plug and play (with the wireing of corse)Originally Posted by rustlude87
Bolt-on mod. The new key makes up for the difference in angle.
LX-incredible has made a complete kit (I think) with wiring harness, seals and studs for this. Its all pretty much waiting on my slow a$$
Some time next week i am going to get a 93 Honda civic which ill be doing a b16 swap and was thinking of seeing about making motor mounts for a 3G since i already have the motor and transmission out of my 88 accord lx. I was looking into the swap(for civic) and it seems that the b16 and b18 both fit, so with the proper motor mounts, it would be possible to drop one in a 3G.
I'm guessing there would need to be transmission mounts made to. Not sure about the axles, but i there were mount available the rest would probably come together.
I know Attarco (at-tar-co)sells a b16 for 750.00 and b18 for 1950.00.

yeah crucial people have already put b-series in 3g's the problem is the mounts... the rest of the stuff is pretty easy... but back on topic... yeah you would need a obd0-obd1 harness which lx-incredible has made at least two of for the accord and one for my rex... and dizzy adapter's whichare real easy... the rest is just the plate and key.

If mounts were made, they would be purchased. If you could make mounts and have them priced around $400, you'd sell a LOT of them.
The axles are easy to get, as we can easily build them ourselves, and the wiring isn't that bad if you can read the wire colors. It's the mounts that keep us from swapping.
you have been here longer than me...and you know "mounts" are not the problem....its the people that dont have money...i would elaborate but i just woke up 15 mins ago...now lets stop whoring this mans thread and start a new one called....what can crucial make for us that dont cost over 500 bucks...he needs to live....and wont work for free
1989 Honda Accord LX-i
B18c1 swap since 7/2011
175whp and 132tq
Redzone tuned

If you need someone to test the plate and key that is already runing obd1 let me know and we can work out something.
i believe he's just going to test it himself since he has all of the wiring and distributors; just needs the plate to begin testing.

im already obd1...i would buy a kit also...so then i could run it with the right angles

well it's not exactly in the for sale phase as of yet since lx-incredible has not recieved the plate to begin his testing. once that's completed a fair price will be decided upon since he's a fair guy.

Still haven't been able to get the part done and if i can't get it in a machine soon I'm gonna see if my girlfriends dads shop can do it for me. The only reason i haven't asked him to run it so far is because i wont have control over how it gets done and can't make the proper adjustments needed. But am working on a set of blue prints for it. That should help.
cool... keep us updated man!

Okay i got a machine for tomorrow!
nice!

LX-incredible I need your address again . I think i deleted it.
does this mean its done!?!?!?! lol
Just need to run last op (coolant port) and will be able to ship both parts next Monday. My boss said he will let me use the cncs on the weekends even if there are parts in the machine, i just have to leave it as i found it. We have more jobs then people and machine atm and looks like its going to just get worse so he decided that this would be the best way for the employees to "experiment". Which is good news for me cause i have a crap load of parts to make.
Ill post a pic when the coolant port is done, nothing new to see atm.
just read this whole thred
My hat is off to you sirs. well done
One of these days, I'll buy a CNC machine.
