Default converting a DOHC ZC ODB0 to a ODB1.

i just bought a 91 civic hb it came with a dohc zc but it had a spun bearing in it. no problem. he gave me a extra block and crank. now i have a 90 crx i did a ODB0 to ODB1 converstion so i know how to do it and what in turns. i will be putting itb in my crx so and i have an extra set. it's easier to tune a ODB1 so my question is...

how difficult it is to convert a DOHC ZC ODB0 to ODB1? and do you have to do almost the samething as if you was doing it in a SOHC.

thank you.

ya you swap it like any other obd0 to obd1. just need the dizzy like which said above is rare but available. its a TD-43U kinda pricey aropund 200 + and ya cant get them at the parts stores atleast not around here just type in TD-43U into google it will bring up some sites.

basically same as converting SOHC to OBD1 - you just need a TD43U distributor - the best ECU is the JDM P29 which uses a one wire O2 sensor - anything else, like P06 needs 4-wire O2

good distributor price here:

i'm a bit puzzle cause when i swap to ODB1 i lose the injector relay. if i do chip my ecu(since it has the PM7 chipped) will i lose the injector relay.

i think i should ask does anyone can link me to diy type link/thread?

if you use the OBD0 injectors, you need the resistor box - if you use OBD1 injectors, you don't use the resistor box - you can use either type injectors
