Default b16a2 swap

Is it possible to swap a b16a2 into an 91 civic dx dpfi. Heard it will be a hard swap and alot of things would have to be done, but would it work if i modify my stock harness to the obd2 harness and use a obd1 ecu. iunno im just confused. anyone?

first off you would have to convert your car to mpfi and then for odb2 and vtec. also the tranny on a b16a2 is hydro so you would either have to convert your car for a hydro tranny or just go buy a cable tranny

Alright, I see what your doing wrong my friend. First have your car, mpfi, than convert it to obd1 with conversion harness, and obd1 dizzy. How did you plug in that obd2 dizzy, did you re wire?. I did the same thing to my 90dx about 2 years ago, than decided to change the whole car harness to si.

And your going to have alot of wiring, EVERYWHERE!!!
