i'll have to get in touch with Wag to find out what all its got, it was his motor first.

i know no one has ever done that swap before and everyone says go with a K because they're the future of honda and all, but i'd still like to be the first person to put a B in an 7.

here's what Wag just told me:
it has brand new rods, pistons, its been heat-treated, has an LSVTEC swap kit on it which was like $170. it was built by AutoLabz here in Birmingham, has 0 miles on it. i'm not sure if the guy is selling the tranny with it or not, but Wag spent $1200 on just the tranny. he also said its one of the cleanest B18s he's ever seen, and it has a really really clean head. Wag said i could probably get $1200 off of just the motor.

EDIT: i just found out its a B18A not C, sorry. The guy is selling the tranny with it for $500, but the trans is missing 2 small parts which he used on his trans. he said those parts would be about $80 from the stealership.

Sounds like it was rebuilt with OEM parts. But buying and selling it isn't a bad idea.

The reasons it dont go in your generation of car good are because mounts, wiring harness, I dont know of any conversion harness's to be able to just put the ecu for that engine in it.

Buy it, take pics, and pm me the pics, I may be interested in it.

yeah i agree with nail bunny... dont go thru so much hassle to drop a b18b into ur 03'. make some money on it by puttin it on ebay and invest in a k20.
