Ok, kind of a long story, but I'll try to make it short as possible:

1998 Civic EX, recently had a obd-1 ls motor installed in it by a shop in town.

Recently purchased a new 1996 GSR motor, obd-2. I guess the problems are, we assumed we needed to put a OBD-1 vtec dizzy in, to mate up to the obd-1 wiring that was done in order to make the obd-1 wiring work. Also, we changed the injectors from the old LS motor into the GSR so they also mate with the obd-1 wiring. Now, is there anything else that needs to be changed on the obd-2 GSR motor to fit into the obd-1 changes that was made to the car?? please help!!

The car hasn't started, it just turns over, so I'm thinking its a timing issue.

what ecu are you using, you're not going to have vtec or secondary baffles if you're using the one from the ls.

We're using a obd-1 p72, not the obd-2 ecu that came with the swap.

when you swap out the dizzy, and re-pin it etc.. did you set the engine to tdc on #1 cylinder and reset the rotor in the dizzy to #1 also?

on a side note, if you are using an ls OBD1 harness, you will needd to wire in the vtec selinoids (sp) too..

Use your ls obd1 alternator.

Do we need to re-pin the dizzy if we are running a obd-1 dizzy?
