Default How to do this SWAP

I have a 1990 Civic DX with the ellusive D15B2 w00t! and am getting a 1992 DX hatch with the D15 with the MPFI. How would I swap that engine into my car? Anyone done this swap? What all is needed other than what I already have?
Thanks Guys

the 92 dx is OBD1... if you want to leave it that way and use the 92dx computer, you've got some serious wiring on your hands... the usual MPFI swap wiring changes, plus you'll need a obd0 to obd1 conversion harness (several people on here sell them) otherwise, you will need an 88-91 MPFI Injectors, distributor, Injector resistor box, ECU, and harness to steal plugs off of (the 92 dx harness may have some of the plugs you need). Unless your B2 engine is almost blown, and the 92 engine is in perfect shape, it probably won't be worth swapping the entire engine, just get the intake mani from it and put it on your engine.

Evilxkid's diagram will work for you if you're using OBD0 parts like I stated above, If you're going OBD1, you won't have the Injector resistor box, and the ECU pins will be different
