Default Swap need help

Here the deal. I have a 1990 b18b and i want to swap it in my 1997 honda cx. Id like to know exactly what i need. I have the ECU and everything is on the engine. But when they talk about wiring does that mean all the wirings in the engine bay?

Here is what i know so far:

-engine
-tranny
-shift link
-ECU (maybe harness for obd2 to obd1 depends)
-axles
-half shafts
-my civic tranny engine support
- rear support of a SI 99-00

IDK is something is missing and i need help id like to do it as soon as possible thanks

Are you sure it will be legal? A lot of states won't allow an older engine in newer chassis. If you plan to keep it OBD2 then you need obd2 ECU and a obd1 jumper harness to use with an obd1 engine wire harness unless you want to convert your plugs for sensors, dizzy, etc.

You will need the rear mount from Si, tranny bracket, and A/C bracket from any integra or si. The rubber mounts you can reuse. Pretty much straight bolt on. And easy if you use obd1 ecu, wiring, etc. But might not be legal.

Axles are the same as half shafts. btw.

Yes the top one you reuse but the front you need from b series. You can use whatever ecu you want obd 1 or obd 2 Use a p75 though. If you use obd1 harness then you need a jumper harness. If obd1 then plug it in and be done. But like I said check and make sure its legal first.
