Kevin, you will need a 92-95 Civic EX/SI ecu(5 speed) P28, and you will also need the distributor off one, auto or standard will work. Then you will need an OBD1 jumper harness.
Also, TAKE IT EASY ON THE CAR MOTOR HAS NOT MANY MILES!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol, and use the best gas in it, VERY high compression.
Sorry for the wiring mess, first swap ever done was with me in that car, and I was butchering stuff back in the day, but remember what I told you, I sold the car for the swap and parts, not for the car, lol. You got a killer deal on parts alone...

i took apart the distro and found the rotor is melted to **** in the center.... is that from the msd? iv already clean out the entire inside of the car, all the glass and **** is outta there....
i started to scrub the entire interior too... looking better already...

NOT CORRECT!!!
To run a D16Y8 with a P28 ECU, you need the D16Y8 dstributer. The Z6 distributer will not bolt to the Y8 head. But the Y8 distributer will work fine with the P28 ECU. DON'T get the one for the 1992-1995 Del Sol!

He said he was using a z6 head but with the Y8 bottom. If you need a z6 dizzy let me know I have one for sell and i just need it out of my place.

Re: (m3dia_lab)
Yes you need a 92-95 sohc vtec dizzy. It's always the same yr dizzy, as the head it came off of and of course the same ecu.
Like I said I have a dizzy for one if u want to buy it.
