i have a 95 honda civic dx hatchback im looking foward to swapping. The problem is i really dont know which b series i want to swap in. ive been looking on HMO and the forums and i decided i either want a B16A 92-95 SirII or a B18C 94-97 GSR, i would like to get your opinion on both engines and/or experiences with them. Also which tranny will work best im saving up to do a auto to 5speed swap so ill need a tranny of course, which would you prefer for the b16 or b18. Also since the b16 is coming off a 92-95 and my civic is a 95 will it mostly be a plug and play? Compared to the b18 which is a later year or does that not really matter? hahah thanks! :thumb:

Check this thread out, I gave my opinion on it, as well as some others who chimed in, on the same style question:
