Default b18b into 1995 civic ex(vtec) question...help!

im sure there is a post somewhere on the swap and things needed but my question i cant seem to find a answer for....this is it i have a full usdm b18b with all parts from my dc2 that im working on right now and motor is just sitting, now i have found a 95 civic ex shell for sale....my 1st question is i want to keep it obd 2 can i use all parts from motor ex: motor mounts, b18b engine harness, axles, shift linkage nowmy concern is when it comes to the plugging up of the engine harness to the civics wiring....can i just plug the harness to the shock tower plugs and then plug in the obd2 ecu? that my only thing is if i can plug the engine harness to the civics wiring and if i can plug my obd2 ecu or do i have to purchase a obd1 to obd2 jumper harness?

don't go obd2, waste of time. Get an obd1 Ls ecu off of ebay for like $40 or something. It'll save you a little headache. Won't have to worry about wiring up the CKF sensor, or secondary O2 sensor. But since the plugs on the injectors,distributor, and alternator are different, it would benefit you to use the integra engine harness.

I think he has to have a matching ECU since he is in California.

if it's complete swap it will swap over with no problem using the integra harness. everything is plug and play.

if you want to run an obd1 harness then you would need to source a obd 1 dizzy, alternator, and injectors or rewire them into your harness.

why would i haev to wire up anything if im using the obd2 b18b with obd2 componets with b18b engine harness? the ckf sensor would just plug into the engine harness form the integra right and the secondary o2 sensor would be my next question how would i wire that up being that the plug for that is in my integra cabin harness?
