D16y8 swap into 89dx HELP"
Ok so my buddy needs help I couldnt help him lol. I need to know what would be the best way to swap in the D16y8 swap into the hatch he wants it obd1 and cable tranny for now. He for sure needs a conv harness and a p28 and obd1 distributor. But witch harness will I use a stock si harness and just run vtec wires to obd1 to obd0 conv harness. Just making sure Im not missing anything.

He needs to do an DPFI to MPFI swap, along with an OBD1 conversion. A stock P28 will run the engine, but it really isn't the right ECU for the job. I have it doing mine, and it's not perfect by any means.
