Wiring for swap question

A friend of mine is working on a '96 civic DX and is putting in a 89-91 B16a; he has a PR3J ECU. Does anyone know a site that could help out with the wiring; especially the ODB conversion? This would greatly help me out if anyone has any info I can pass along.

Skunk 2 Has a ECU Conversion Harness. Converts OBDII to OBDI. http://www.skunk2.com/start.htm Maybe this will help you.

Wouldn't a 89-91 B16a be an OBD 0 engine? If so that Skunk2 harness isn't going to work.

yeah but the motor is going into a 96 civic, tell your boy he is better off getting a b16a3 from the 99si, that way he wont have to worry about swapping the obd wires around.

Thanks everyone for the help so far, unfortunately not what I'm looking for exactly. I really need a site that tells how to do the wiring by myself (in this case my friend).
But yes I realize how odd it is that he got that engine, but he says he wanted more hp but didn't have a lot of $ to spend; but I think this non-expensive short cut is going to end up being a lot more $ and time to do than even a 92-95 b16a.
