Yes, the 96-98 EX harness will plug right into the obd-1 motor. The only big thing is, the ECU from your OBD1 motor is not going to fit, you'll have to get a OBD2A ecu or chipped p28 with jumpers.

Won't it use a different distributor, or atleast some modification to the wiring at the distributor?

You'd have to convert the distributer to 96-00 unless you know how to rewire the distributer from OBD1 to OBD2. I once rewire the distributor on an LS from OBD1 to OBD2 and it works fine. Look at the wire colors and look at the connectors, make sure the wire colors matches. Good Luck.
