Dizzy plugs almost always change by OBD, not engine type. Is there only one plug or two?

i am in the same boat with you, what i did was order a $35 adapter from rywire, like 8 pin to 10pin. From what I know they are pretty much interchangeable, but the IAT on mine is a bit different from the B series, so what you can do is find the pigtail (connector off a b series wiring harness) and wire it onto your new wiring harness so you can plug it right into the IAT sensor, which is on the intake arm..
so far those are the only two issues ive really had, if you have any you should message me because I would like to know somethings that could go wrong also.

no i dont have it running yet, but everything plugs up correctly except for the two things i stated before, some people were telling me to extend the IAT wire but I didn't see a need in that because the harness is long enough as long as you get that pigtail..

get the adapter harness, you'll have to get an IAT plug if you're using a b18/b20.
