96-98 Civic EX harness should be the easiest.

^Yep. Or 97-98 CR-V. There is no direct swap harness, you're going to have to get a little bit creative/custom if you want it to fit 100%

You might have to unwrap and reroute a couple of things, and the vtec wiring will be just hanging if you use a Y8 harness, but for the most part it should fit pretty close. Just make sure nothing is stretched or strained, and try to make it so that the harness doesn't touch anything (hoses, block, etc), just like the factory one does. You'll figure it out as soon as you start routing it around on the new motor.
