Default Engine Swap Help!

I read the archived information about the swaps and searched as well, im still finding it difficult to finish my swap.

I have a 99 dx and a OBD1 B16A waiting to be put in.

i have a friend withn a salvaged EM1, and im using his harness.

i know i can either convert the harness to OBD1, by using the remaining plugs from the motor and using my SOHC injectors.

i have access to all the components from his EM1, such as the distributor, alternator, etc...so i could convert the motor to OBDII.

at this point i dont know which route to take.

what else needs to be done to convert this, and is there an easier way.

if anyone has a wiring diagram or writeup how to do this, it would be greatly appreciated.

any and all information would be greatly appreciated.

(PS, i need this done by the 23rd, so if anyone in the NOVA area wants to make a hundred bucks and kick back a couple beers, shoot me a PM .)

You can keep it OBDII by using the EM1 harness, distributor and injectors. Then get a jumper harness at the ECU and run an OBD1 ECU.

Is there anything else i would need from the em1 besides dist., and injectors? What about the alternator plugs, they are different.
