Stupid newbie question: D16Z6 into 1990 CRX

OKAY....I'm going to be attempting this relatively simple swap in the near future, but I have a quick question about the wiring. I'm planning on converting the car to OBD1 by using the P28 ECU, and buying this harness: http://www.boomslang.us/obd0.htm so I can just use the existing CRX plugs to plug into the ECU without messing with the wires and such. But what about the engine harness wiring, does that plug in to the D16 or will I have to be splicing that anyway? The eight loose wires on that conversion harness, does that cover the engine wiring? I'm not certain of the specifics of this. Any help would be appreciated.

yes, with that harness it just plugs into the place where the stock ecu is and lets you plug in a obd1 ecu. when you put it on a crx si all you will have to add are the 8 wires. you might need to extend some of the exsiting harness plugs to reach the sensors on the d16z6.

Ok, cool. So the plugs on the harness in the engine bay will plug to the engine sensors and whatnot with no problems? Awesome, thanks.
