Default k series in a em1

I'm looking into doing a k series swap in my 99 civic hx. it has a b16a1 in it now, but I've always wanted a k. I was hoping to hear from people that have actualy done it, or have knowledge of the swap. what ecu, what harness, all that.

Btw your car is not a em1. 1999-2000 Civic Si is classified is an em1.

Just some info.

Still doesn't make it a em1. Don't know what a em1 has to do with a b series being in your hx?

Also the b16 came in other models, not just the Si.

it'd be the 4th, 5th, 6th character of your VIN number. so I think yours would be an ej7.
