Default Do I need diff shocks in front w/LS swap?

Hi all. I have an 88 ef with an LS swap. I'm looking to get KYB shocks all around but not sure how I should go about it. Some ppl mentioned getting integra shocks in the front to compensate for the heavier motor but I have no idea. Can you guys help? Also, if u do suggest the teg shocks please list the yr. Thx in advance.

dont worry about shocks for a slightly heavier engine. if your really wanting to upgrade something look more into custom spring rates for the front. and integra shocks are longer anyways.

u should be fine even with stock suspension. the KYB's will do just fine with the engine swap.
