B16a2 into a 1997 Civic
I swapped a B16a2 motor into a 97 civic dx... I used the Full obd2b Engine harness(motor 99 SI).
The Car runs good and Vtec engages and everything but the speedo and the tach doesnt work... I went and bought the plug that was missing since i was using that 99-00 Si ECU... i figured out why the tach doent work.. fixed it.. but now im stumped of the speedo... help...

buy a 96-98 EX obd2a harness and an obd2a to obd2b conversion harness from boomslang or the like, and you will have zero problems, and even pass inspection/smog in 50 states.
and then sell the 99si harness.

You can pick up a harness new at http://www.hondaautomotiveparts.com or you can find a couple used ones at http://www.haprecycling.com, http://www.inlinefour.com (you'll have to call for availability) try those out and let us know.
