Default i need help desperately!!! b16a3 into ek (1999 civic ex)

okay i know you might call me a dumbass for not getting the same obd engine as my car, well i got a b16a3 complete swap off a delsol dohc vtec for about a grand. im not doing this myself, my buddy that owns a shop knows his ****, he did a b16a2 (obd2) into an eg6 (i take is an obd1) but thats the wrong way im going, im going obd1 engine in obd2 car. i have done tons of research already about the **** i need and blah blah blah (i dont know if my buddy knows his stuff about going obd1 engine in obd2 car, so im trying to help him out)

i know that i need axles from a 94 up integra, a 94 up gsr shift linkage, a new 99 si rear engine mount, the p/s pump, *im deleting my ac in order to make room for a turbo* and i already have the intermediate shaft from the delsol dohc vtec, as well as the WHOLE wiring harness, the ecu, the engine and tranny ofcourse....and all the other goodies that came with it....basically ripped everything from the delsol's engine bay.

now the hard part....am i supposed to get an obd2-obd1 conversion harness for the ecu if i wana keep my dash harness? if not, where is a site i can get wiring diagrams?

any help would be greatly appreciated (REALLY!) since my buddy wants my d16y8 in a customer's civic VERY SOON...and im getting the engine yanked tomorrow afternoon.

thanks so much

jason

if your putting in an OBD 1 engine in where a OBD 2 was, you need to use the OBD 1 ECU and wireing harness. you wont be able to use the OBD 2 harness on the b16. so yes you'll have to either convert or just take the ECU and harness from the Sol
