Default swap B16A2 from EK4 to EE8/EF8

Hi, I'm from Italy and i own a 96 Civic VTi EK4 that came stock with a B16A2.
I also own a 91 CRX EE8 VT (pretty similar to EF8 but LHD and with B16A1 stock motor, same front end as EF8 and frame i believe).
2 weeks ago i crashed the Civic, and as seen as I got few mods and very less kilometers on the B16A2 I was thinking to swap the b16a2 into the CRX.
I'm pretty noob about swap, but I think it should be an easy swap, keeping the stock transmission on crx, what else should i do to the swap? The connection for the injector are different, I have to fit the crx injector on the b16a2 or is better to swap the connector also? I have to remove the resistor box? What are the other differences? the sensors are different?
thanks a lot
Tony

Simple - keep everything that has to do with wiring (sensors, dizzy, ect) from the CRX and put it on the B16A2. Yes EVERYTHING is different you are skipping two generations of computer technologies.
