Default EK Swap Question

Ok, here's the deal. I bought a 98 EK with an obd1 b16 swap. I just recently sold the motor and tranny because of smog issues and fix-it tickets. I am now planning to put a d16y8 into it.

I still have the innovative b series mounts on the chasis, and wire harness still attached.

My question is, will the mounts work with a d series? and also, would the existing wiring work with the new motor or would I have to get something different?

Any input will be greatly appreciated

yea, california is such a bitch when it comes to stuff like that. but the b16 was really lacking on torque, so maybe a turbo d would be a little better.

stock harness will work fine, B series mounts will not. you will also need the sohc axles and shift linkage.

yeah you have to find a stock pair of mounts and a stock dx or cx harness depending on what model hatch you have. Along with an ecu, i just found my harness and ecu, and paid too much for them, but i couldn't wait any longer.
