Default Converting OBD1 B16a To OBD2B

Might be getting a b16a from HMotors, but all they carry according to their site are OBD1 B16a's. The swap will go into a 2000 Civic EX coupe, I know that everyone will tell me to go OBD1. But I need it to be OBD2b compliant as I need it for smog.

What's needed to convert it over to OBD2b?

I have a general idea, but correct me if I'm wrong or missing anything. But this is what I will need from the top of my head.

OBD2b B-series oil pump
OBD2b B-series VTEC distributor
Re-use my D16y8 injectors for the b16a
P2T ecu

If I'm missing something let me know. Thanks

It still won't be smog compliant because the motor is older than the car. But you can use the obd1 distributor just use a jumper harness. The alternator and IAT wont plug in.
