anyone know where to find a dx and b16a wire diagrams.

I am putting a b16a into a dx
The engine has the b16a wire harness while the car has the stock dx chassis wire running to the ecu, do all the wires match up?

I mean of coarse besides dpfi to mpfi and the vtec wiring do i have to switch any other wires around at the ecu or at the point where the 2 harnesses connect in the engine bay?

 

The thing to do is use the DX engine harness,
convert it to MPFI and then add the extra four wires
for the VTEC engine..

Look through the FAQ topics as there are several..
You will need the resistor box,its wiring and the injector clips..
and mpfi fuel line from the filter to the throttle body
if your new engine did not have one..

 

I have had all of those wired already but someone still told me that i would have to do some wiring or get a new harness becuase the wires that come from the b16a to the clip for the dx dont line up the same i.e the orange on the b16a might be for the fuel pump but not on the dx, on the dx it might be for something else?

 

bump, no one has a dx or any type of service manual with a chassis diagram, i just need to know what each pin is used for on the dx chassis please help ...

Well lets put it this way
Would it be better to use the b16a engine harness the dx chassis harness or the dx engine harness on the b16a and the dx chassis harness

Use the dx engine harness with the dx chassis harness.

I already did both of those But i was hooking the b16a engine harness to the dx chassis harness. I should just use the dx engine harness on the b16a engine... Right?
