Default OBD2 motor in a OBD1 car?

I might get a 97 GS-R motor to put in my 94 hatch. I know how to swap it but what about the state ref? if i try to ref it will it fail because of the gas tank or something?

actually there is a problem because if you put a OBD2 motor in a OBD1 car in CALIFORNIA, all of the smog equiptment must be hooked. I heard that OBD2 a GS-R had something different about its fuel tank.
