Default 1996 civic B16A swap

ok, so im planning on swapping a b16a into my 1996 honda civic. i have the engine sitting in my garage waiting to be swapped, but i need some clarification on a couple things. first, the wiring harness-correct me if im wrong but i need a OBD11 to OBD1 conversion for the b16a engine to work. if anybody knows where i can find one for a decent price please let me know. next is the motor and transmission mounts. i found that the motor and transmission mounts in the 1996 civic will not work with the b16a, and im not sure what exactly the brackets are and if i need them. if anyone knows anything about this please let me know. any help is greatly apriciated

I'm not sure about the OBDI,II part but I'd look around www.hondamarketplace.com (the Honda-Tech Marketplace) to find a conversion harness. I don't think they're that expensive to buy new either. And you are correct, your D-series mounts will not work on a B-series engine. You might be able to find some of those on that same site.

Search around and if you don't find what you need, post a want ad for B-series engine and transmission mounts.
