Default B18C1 ECT sensor wiring question

ok i am taking a b16a (first-gen, OBD0) out of my 91 si crx, and i am putting my b18c1 gsr motor from my crx dx in the si. The gsr in my dx is wired obd0. i am using the si engine harness and converting it to fit the gsr. I also have the skunk2 intake manifold. I need to know where to wire the GSR's ECT sensor (engine coolant temperature), on the B16a si harness (splice it in to the si harness), because i dont see an ECT sensor on the b16a motor. ANY HELP AT ALL WILL HELP!!!!!

don't use the Si harness.

second you will need to convert the DX harness to MPFI then Add plugs like fuel injectors, 02, knock sensor, vtec etc.

you will need a conversion harness

Second you will need to cut the two wires and splice the Coolant sensor for the fan to come on. On the DX,Si coolant sensor has two plugs but OBD1/2 has just one plug.

The 2 wires that went to the old switch. (back of block) the wires are separate and have barrel type plugs. You'll have to extend the wiring to reach the thermostat housing.
