Default 89 crx b16a2 conversion!?!?!?!?!?!?!

ok here is the deal I am running a stock 89 crx.... I am trying to convert it to a b16a2 out of a 2000 and I was just told that it is going to be really difficult but I want to do it anyways. My question is, is there anyone that has done the same conversion out there that can give me a heads up on what I am in for and what they did to match up an OBD2 to a OBD0? I am hoping to do this swap soon so anyone that can get back to me I would be greatful.

i almost bought a b16a2, but then i was told that it woulnt be worth it due to the fact that a simple swap that could be bought for less could be put in for less. I was told that it would be upward and over of $4000 to get that bitch to fit and work, so I went for a b16a1 that was cheaper and was easier to fit in sell that **** and go with an earlier b16a and save yourself some money and to many headaches. Also, If your willing to spend that much, just go with an ls/vtec or a b18c1/5, ull b happier
