Default 93 Civic EX w/ B16a Swap... (SEARCHED ALREADY!)

I have searched HT's countless amount of threads, hondaswap and all of our sticky's and none of them answer all my needs. Just bits and pieces here and there, and its getting more confusing!

My car- Bone stock 93 Civic EX Coupe
My swap- B16a w/ OBD2 Dist, Alternator,Injectors
My tranny- Transmission out of an 00 Civic Si.

I only have the rear tranny mount, it came with the motor and was used in the original owners 98 Civic LX. (Will this swap over?)

Which wiring harness will I need to use the obd2 parts?
-I read that any 96-98 Integra VTEC harness will work?
-Any thing I will need to change?
-Any sensors need to be wired in?
Which Mounts will I need? Including which mounts for AC and PS?
Which Shift Linkage?

And pretty much any other things that I will need to look out for when im doing the swap? Im trying to get everythign I need to do it in the weekend, so ill be able to have a car for the work week!!!

Which wiring harness will I need to use the obd2 parts?
-use obd I wiring harness off your ex
-rewire the dizzy using the clips off your sohc
-rewire the alternator using clips off your sohc
-use the injectors off your sohc... they're both 240cc's anyways

Any sensors need to be wired in?
-I believe knock will have to be wired in

Which Mounts will I need? Including which mounts for AC and PS?
-you will beed PC and PS mount brackets off of a b series motor
-Tranny side mount should be the same. Driver side varies... make sure that you have the mount according to the mount bracket off the b16.
-Any rear tranny mount should work, but you will need the rear mount bracket off a gsr or ls.

Which Shift Linkage?
99-00 si or 94-00 integra

https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=550976 This thread has alot of good info, It's helped me alot. Since you have the OBD2 distributor already I would just use a OBD2 GSR or Type R engine harness and everything will plug right in. I believe it's the 96-01 harness that you should look for that make it completely plug and play.

I got a good deal deal on Hasport mounts so that's what I'm using. The shift linkage that came with the swap will work. You will also need the a/c and p/s bracket from the DOHC Del Sol (I forgot the part #'s). The brackets will bolt up to your stock condenser and p/s. I'm doing the exact same swap right now and this is the route I'm going.

I thought I heard something that if u run a chipped p28, you wont have to wire in the knock sensor... I could be completely wrong though...

Also, Ive been under the impression that people have used there top tranny mount and drivers side top mount off of a D-Series for a b-series motor, I have not researched this myself....

Also, you could just use the plugs off of your stock motor, for the dizzy alternator etc, and color match everything.... Then your obd1 harness off your car will bolt right on... :-) that's what I did when I did my b16 swap awhile back.... Good luck though....

Well i decided im gonna use the obd2 dist/alt and injectors since all these are almost new on my swap. Will a harness from 96+ work? I wasnt sure if 96-98 was the only years?

If i get a chipped p28 with no knock is that somthing that i really should have on my motor? i was under the impression the knock sensor is kinda worthless?

exactly what i would do. keep in mind that if you want to keep AC, you need a P54 AC bracket/mount.
