from what i was told its one from a 99 the one with the higher compression
i also read somewhere that the p75 ecu worked well with this engine toughts?
i was told it is from a 99-2001 so im pretty sure its a obd2 but just want to make sure

get a converter harness for the distributor and fuel injectors, and get distributor for a 99 crv cuz that is what you said it came from

use your alternator from the d15

chip your current ecu to p75 maps or buy a p75 ecu

you shouldnt need to make any change to the harness if you get those harness converters above.

and get some aftermart b swap mounts like hasport or innovative

http://www.rywire.com/catalog/obd1-h...ters-p-36.html --- fuel injector converters, they have the distributor one too.
http://www.rywire.com/catalog/obd1-t...pter-p-42.html

id say just get a stock throttle body for now, and the mounts would definitely be worth it.

you will have lots of fun with this swap in your eg (:

You have a few options but that would be the easiest or get a 92-95 Integra LS distributor will plug and play. For the alternator you can use a 92-95 LS or if the engine came with one you can convert the plug over or use an adapter harness for that. You can use your injectors from the D15 as they are the same 240CC as the B20. Use your wiring harness for the rest.

Yes it will. Just have to changeover the connector plugs. OP can run OBD2 engine harness with OBD1 P75 ECU. However, it seems like he just have a bare long block with GSR tranny and nothing much else.

The ls distributor would plug and play in his car as long as it was 92-95.

so for the injectors just switch over the whole fuel assembly the b20b already has the injectors and everything
