    When you say swap, do you mean you are taking a B18A1 out and putting a B18B1 in? Cause if they are both OBD-1 and hydro then they should swap right out. But I could be wrong.

    to my understanding, the ONLY difference is the intake manifold on the b18b1 is slightly larger.. but Just Chill is right.. make sure they are both obd1, and if you are using the original trans, no worries on hydro or cable.. GL

    Depending on the year, you will have to do a tad bit of wiring, some sensors are in different locations.

    every thing is identical, except for the tranny. and the cams are slightly (like hair with size) bigger but not by much.
