Default Help! CRX B16 Harness Problem (NOOB)

Im about to install a b16a into my DX crx. I've read about a few guys cutting up their stock DX harness but i also heard that i could use an SI harness for wiring. i have a spare SI harness but is it just plug and play? Any advice would be appreciated, this is my first swap obviously.

This qustion is as old as Honda-tech. Tons and tons of posts about it, do a search, but there are a few notes.
DO NOT use an SI harness, will not work, period.
You need two things.
1. convert to MPFI, using the si harness as a donor.
2. convert the harness to VTEC using the B16 harness as a donor.
Do a little reading/searching all the info you need is here.
