Default Y8 into a 1986 crx

I'm really hoping this swap has been done before. I'm needing help with wiring. Any info or suggestions are much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Not really done. Most people seem to swap in the ZC motors, because it's a straight forward swap. Or perhaps a Blue top or Black top integra motor.

you'll be on your own, but gladly there isn't that much wiring to do, and if you have a manual from each car, or use a standalone computer, it'll be pretty straight forward.

If however you are expecting aftermarket support for putting a Y8 into an 86 crx, then you'll figure out quickly that the market for the crx is so limited, most shops don't care if you are doing the swap or not. They can't make bank off of a one off part. So you'll have to use off the shelf parts or make your own.

With your original post you gave an amazing amount of information... not.

is your crx fuel injected or carbed?
