Default OBD 1 B18c into 97 EK, able to use stock civic wiring harness?

Well i have a 1995 B18c I'm putting into my 97 Civic EX.

I have a 96 DX wiring harness I'll be using with the motor, with a conversion harness running the stock obd1 p72 ecu. I know I have to wire in Vtec, but am I missing anything else. Should the wiring just be plug and play with the 96 Dx wiring harness and the 95 B18c?

Will the distributor have to be repinned or anything? Any lengthening of wirs?

Thanks for the knowledge

If i just run obd 2 civic injectors I shouldn't have to swap out the injector plugs.......I'm having a brain fart here and can't remember what the Iab is?

what about knock sensor,, you could just buy a ex harness and it all there... and you know that you can't use the dx injector if u plan on using obd2 ones, u need to get ex or Si ones..obd2 teg injectors will work also

yeah, I totally forgot about the know sensor, hmmmm.

I've got the injectors figured out, but now what do I have to do about the knock sensor since I'll be using a CX wiring harness.
