Default Help please OBD2b to b18b1 OBD1!!

ok im not new to this site but its been awhile since ive been on here ok so heres the details-
i have a 99 civic ex (obd2b) i currently have a OBD1 b18b1 in it installed all plugs in and ready for startup this is what i did
since its a obd1 engine i simply had a spare b16 motor with shot pistons rods etc...i mean complete...i took off the ALT, FUEL INJECTORS, FUEL RAIL, AND BOUGHT A OBD2 DIZZY FROM A 96 teggy so the big plug would plug right in...now is this all that i need to finish the swap motor wise....because i just ordered the obd2b to obd1 jump harness and i have a p72 obd1 ecu i know it will throw a check engine light for vtec...but do i need to bypass CKF or o2 sensors? or anything? please help...i know abou the motors but very bad with obd ****.....and wiring etc...

No CKF or 2nd 02 on OBD1. You will throw an engine light for knock and VTEC.
