Default obdII to obdI

If I'm going to put the b18c5 motor into my 95 civic ex. what would I have to change out to make it work? If my existing ecu and other misc. component are OBDI....If I used the distibutor,ecu,harness and all sensors off of a OBDI car, wouldn't I still need to upgrade to OBDII ???

EVERYTHING on the motor will be OBD2, even the distributor.

Then you just plug in an OBD1 ECU and go.

It's simple.

if you get the motor with the engine harness, it will plug into your car fine. you just need to get you p28 chipped to stock b18c5 specs. try www.jdmhondaparts.com i hear katman does good work.
