you will needs a set of engine mounts, you will need a conversion harness of some sort whether you keep it obd0 or upgrade to obd1. regardless you will need a new ecu that will support vtec.

and that your starting with an automatic your pretty much on your own there. but you will need the pedal assemblies from a 88-91, and who knows what else.

your gonna have to search for a more indepth answer to your question. i suggest lots of googling and a large notepad. also try some other honda forums not just one

So do I need a new harness? Can I use the same one? What about the ecu that came with the engine?
