This will fit perfectly with your civic 96 to 98…. This came form a stick shift 5 speed D16Y8 engine swap that came in a civic year model 97 Ex manual transmission. It can also be a great choice for those of you with a civic 96 to 98 that are looking to convert over to B series Vtec or non Vtec. This item has zero damage. I installed a JDM B20 year 2000 engine block with a Gsr head. For the B series Vtec swap, you need to stretch the Vtec plug and the Vtec oil pressure switch plug just a bit, based on the Bseries Vtec solenoid location on the head versus the Vtec solenoid location on the single can Vtec type heads. I have had it this way for over 2 years and I have had no problems. Professional installation is always recommended. Since I commute all around Southern California on a weekly basis, there is strong possibilities that we can meet close to your home or half way. I encourage you to contact me ahead of time so that we can make arrangements. Pacific standard time then your chances of having your product go out on the same day are very strong. Feel free to look at my feedback…. I try to make my customers very happy. I can not be held responsible for mistakes made on your end.
