Default B18c swap into 98 EK 5speed...problems.....??????

Ok...we started the swap friday. We just got the motor in today. The motor is an Obd1. Will my distributor work or will I need a different one? If so, from what car do I need to get one from....obd1 or obd2??? Also, I have some DC sports headers for an 99-00 Civic Si, 94-97 DOHC Del Sol. Will these fit?? I had some difficulty trying to make them fit. Will the fuel rail in the B18 work with my harness? Please someone help me out. If you have any pictures please show. Please I welcome all advice on how to make this swap any easier.

1) Need OBD II distributor, different plugs

2) B16A's have a short deck hieght, so the fitment will be tight.

3) Don't think the injectors will plug in, but you can use you Civics injectors if you end up using your Civics harness.

The injectors should plug right in......the IAC plug is different, but you cna find the instructions on here rather easily. It won't be a direct plug and play, but you can make the harness work with a little effort. No clue on teh dist question.
