Yep, you can. Just switch out the electronics for the obd0 harness. IE: distributer, manifold, etc.

Cool sounds good, I need a motor asap. i bought an engine and I was foolish enough to just swap it in without doing a compression check after I took the dudes word on it being ok. But anyway I got a good deal on this 92cx motor so hopefully this will all work out ok. Thanks for the info

I wish I could swap it over to MPFI while im in there, but maybe I'll just get the parts for that later
