Search around. You'll find your answers. Any motor swap is going to be more complicated then just "bolting it in" and going. Expect to run into things.

retard
BOLTS RIGHT IN , DIRECT REPLACMENT
86-89 integra ecu is slightly better for the ZC but yours will work fine. The integra ecu has a better fuel map and higher red line.

You would be better off telling people what [freak]ing engine you have other than what you have posted so far.
You will need to do a OBDO to OBD1 swap with the ecu and wiring now.

Absolutely, there are many ZC variants. If this is a SOHC VTEC ZC, you will need to convert to OBD1 and get an OBD1 ECU or get your PM6 chipped. All of your other stock components will work.

OP, you will also need to wire in VTEC and the knock sensor. I also think Rywire may manufacture a pre-made harness that will take care of this for you though.
