D16Y8 TO B18B1 Swap Please Help

Just one final check?

Do I have to remove all of the Wiring harness from the Civic and replace it with the complete harness from the integra?

Or will my OBD2 harness thats in the engine bay of my civic except all of the plugs on the new B18b1 motor?

I cant throw any cel! needs to be a complete install

I have it up on jack stands and have the old motor almost ready to pull out I am ordering the new JDM motor friday and want to make sure i have everything i need.

I am getting a complete swap kit that should be coming with all the mounts and harnesses.

Is there anything I should replace or check while I have the B18b1 out? Like timing belt? Water Pump? sensors?

Thanks for all the help guys! I'll try to post pics as it comes apart!

I'll be using the Integra headers now correct? I need to order a set?

Check the timing belt, if its cracked or worn looking, replace it along with the water pump. also check the valve cover gasket, spark plug seals, cam seal, etc.
