use your stock OBD2 harness, connect it to the engine. then with the conversion harness everything will work fine.
Even if you want to go back to OBD2 for emissions testing.

either way will work.
Personally I'd go with the OBD2 harness so your OBD2 distributor, injectors and alternator will hook right up.

not to sound like a jerk or anything but..i already wrote that i CHANGED OVER to obd1. including dizzy alternator and everything. i want the wiring harness to be CLEAN . no loos wires hanging out that needs to plugged somewhere. so with that beind said. which wiring harness will fit perfectly and have no loose wires or need no modifcation on my converted to OBD1 swap? and remember it was converted.

sorry I guess I forgot or missed the fact that you have the OBD1 stuff all ready.
Since that rules out one of the two options, guess you have the go with the other.

The only harness that will fit perfectly on your setup is one you custom make yourself. Then the neatness is dependent on your time and skills.

If you want something to work with pick up an OBD1 B16 harness (92-95 DelSol VTEC) and an EG SI chassis harness to get to the ECU. (or any model from '92)
There will be some wires to connect with the chassis harness though.
