b16 swap

[88 del sol 88]

does anybody have step by step instructions to swap a b16 into a del sol? should i make this a project for me or should i take it to a shop and have someone do it for me?

im taking out my b16 in an EG civic this weekend. i think the engine bay is similar. you are welcome to come and take a look at it, maybe take some notes. its the same steps but backward for you. i have a digi cam and can take pic of all the steps if you want. the swap is quite simple, save some money and do it yourself. its better if you have someone that've done the swap before.

Quite simple being completely relative...of course. :p I was 'almost' thinking about attempting to change the suspension out on my del Sol..decided to have Tobi do it instead..and it WAS simple..untill there was a bolt that was seized and ended up requiring a sacrifice to the finger gods, and some serious abuse from the air hammer to remove it.

If you dont have the tools, space, or knowledge to do it properly...especially in the event of some weird disaster..I'd pay someone to do it. There are plenty of shops here in colorado that will do it..many people will vouch for Tobi (Honda Ghandi) but I'm sure there is something to be learned either way. :)
