Engine Swap

The first action I decided to take towards my new project car was to do an engine swap. At first I was thinking about upgrading to a b16a2 but looked at my budget and I had a little bit more to money to play with so I then decided to finally go with the b16b swap which I had gotten from Total JDM Toronto.
