WTF? Here's a tip: GSRs were OBD2 as well. They have a seperate engine harness. Look, you're wrong, stop scraping for silly reasons why he has to use obd1 stuff, because he doesn't. The only reason you have to swap to OBD1 dizzy, alternator, and injectors is if you are using the car's original OBD1 harness. Even then it's possible to swap OBD2 injector clips, and rewire for the distributor and alternator.

ok..... so i got 2 different things going on.......
so i've gather the p28 is acutaly obd1 like my car is so that will plug into my chasis harnes no problem.
and even tough the engine and the engine harness is obd2 i dont need a conversion kit because i can just leave what ever extra plug i have unplugged and the rest can go into the obd1 chasis harness?
i gues the thing i was confused about was the chasis harness. and the adapter harness's that i can buy..and if i needed one
