Hello everyone, I have just recently caught interest in the first gen civics. I have a couple 4th gens, and a second gen crx. Im interested in swapping a b16 into a first gen. I have read some of the other posts, but I cant seem to come up with a definate answer. hopefully you can help me out or point me to a related post. I have swapped quite a few motors into other cars and im handy around the welder and torch. So...
From what I understand the sohc d series axles will work with the stock 1st gen civics? If this is the case then why do you have to get custom axles with a b series? The b series axles bolt up fine in a 4th gen if you take the dust caps off.

The civic I might be able to get is a 78 or 79. So there is both a 1200 model and a cvcc/1500 model for those years? And I need the cvcc/1500 for the b series for the extra room I guess. Which is the easiest way to tell which one it is?

Thanks very much for any help, I would like to talk to anyone how has done the b series swap! My email and msn messenger is worm_it@hotmail.com. Feel free to add me to your list anytime!

Chris
