to put a new B18B in his teg and sell it.

i would oil change it. they usually dont ship them any fluid. added weight to shipping charges.

i'd replace every gasket, fluid, pump, and belt I could. maybe even pull the head and replace valve seals/guides, and redo the valve seats and replace the head gasket.

fuck that. i got the engine because it was cheaper than doing all that crap to my b18a. all i want to do is have the car running for now
