Default D16y8 wiring harness question

I have a 91 civic lx and i am about to install a d16y8 into it. I am converting it to obdI, i have the ecu jumper harness and a p28 ecu. I know i need a wiring harness from a 88-91 si. my question is can i use a wiring harness from a 91 prelude si? Thanks.

wrong, you need to use your LX engine harness, convert it to match the d16y8. You can't simply throw another engine harness in your car. Sorry.

Rywire has options for ya, checkout the website.

That's where a DPFI to MPFI conversion comes in.
