Default Its time to get ready for the BAR sticker

Ok, right now i have a obd 0 b16, and i need to switch over to obd I cuz i really want that bar sticker. anyways, i was thinking about just getting the ecu, harness, injectors etc...but my block is a 89, and my car is a 90. So i think i'm just gonna swap a whole new long block in.

If i find an obd I longblock, ecu, and get the wiring harness for it, how difficult would it be to get into my existing car? any kinda of problems i might run in to?

just make sure everything matches and all your equipment hooked up properly.


BAR is Bureau of Automotive Repair. If you pass that, they'll give you a "BAR" sticker which means your swap was registered legally. Meaning you meet the state standard with motor swaps. So if a cop wants to give you a ticket for a swaped motor.. flash him that sticker that will be on the driverside doorjam.

ok...thanx for giving the definition of BAR and why i'd be nice to have it. i didn't really feel like giving it out @ the start

but anyways, does anyone have any suggestions or comments about the wiring? basically, i wanna know if i take a OBDI wiring harness from a DA, EG or DC chassis will it work without mucho headaches in my car? as in...is it something i could easily do myself, or would i have to be a wiring genius?

Why don't you try getting that set up to pass right now before you do any changes. Who knows, you might get an ignorant referree like I did. I Passed with a stock 97 LS running it non-obd. I simply replaced my 1 wire O2 to a 4 wire O2 sensor and told him it's obd2. Just make sure to make your engine bay look stock as possible and motor runs clean.
