Default d16y8 to d16z6 ! please help me my Honda people.

so i have a 98 Honda civic ex, and my engine blew last week. since its my daily driver i went and bought a cheap working d16z6 swap with 147 miles on it. I've done my research and i know my car is obd2a and the z6 is obd1. if im not mistaking i'll need a obd2a to obd1 jumper harness and a obd1 ecu witch most likely will be a p28. can i just drop the full swap in and use the harness and the p28 ecu and call it a day ? im really new too this and some forms confuse me and say you could use your ob2 ecu ? i just want too drop the full swap in the car and not have too use parts from the y8. please help you guys. i'll appreciate it.

If you don't want to do anything else then the z6 will drop right in and work as long as you have the jumper from obd2-1, the ecu and the wiring harness.

You'll have to swap over your alternator and injectors for plug and play. Also the distributor won't plug and play and the Z6 distributor won't plug and play either. The Y8 distributor will barely bolt up as well.
