Default question about diff pistons

hey guys im new on here and i have a few questions. i have an 89 crx si with a zc engine. the car had a tap when i bought it and i wound up spinning a rod bearing, breaking the rod and busting the skirts off the piston. so i ordered parts for it thinking it had a swap from an integra but i just realized the pistons have different numbers on them. the one out of the engine has pm7 stamped on it and the new one has p29. i already got the rod and piston pressed so my questions..
are the rod and pistons the same size? are these gonna fit? uggggghhhh!
thanks guys!

DOHC ZC I'm guessing? Most people think it's an Integra motor, but it ain't.

The PM7 pistons will work just fine, they're almost exactly identical to the P29s.

PM7 and P29 pistons are exactly the same - the JDM OBD0 DOHC ZC had PM7 pistons - the 88-89 Integra D16A1 and the JDM OBD1 DOHC ZC had P29 pistons
