true that^^^ or you could get the 96 lude ecu and it's obd2 with no stupid immobilizer... they are a ***** to find though
But those are OBD2a so you would still need an adapter harness from b to a

The accord has an OBD2b style ecu. The motor you posted up in the link is an OBDI ecu controlled motor. What you could do for wiring is get this adapter harness(http://www.boomslang.us/obd2to1.htm). This makes it really easy to swap. Using the existing engine wiring harness, hook up all the plugs to the new engine. Then just hook up the harness to the adapter, and the adapter to the ecu that came with the motor.
So the adapter is for the ecu right ? so one end would go to the stock accord wiring and the other would plug in to the new ecu right?
Thanks
I Am looking at this motor now http://www.hmotorsonline.com/shop/sc2000search.cgi?what=page&item=30016 I just dont know exactly what else i need in order to complete a swap. Most likley I'll be giving it to a shop to do the swap because I hate wiring.
Thanks in advance

Cool thanks. Does anyone know of any shops that might have experience with this swap in michigan?Ive bought at least 6 or 7 motors from Steve, (for Honda swaps at my shop and for myself). He is a great guy, super reliable and very reasonably priced. Highly recommended.
You'd need one of those anyway. But there is a lot more wiring to do.
I do all the wiring here at the shop and would be happy to convert an engine harness for any one here. My swapped accord has been my daily for the past 4 years out of the 10 years Ive owned it.
I have one. . . And its for sale!!!! PM me if anyone is interested!
There is a lot of wiring that has to be done. You need to change the wiring for the distributor, for the IAT, for the crank sesnor (if I remember). O2 Sensor wire needs to be moved and extended... there is a lot of work.
I would not recommend doing it yourself the first time unless you are extremely knowledgeable with your car and its wiring.
After that you need to convert to ODB1 (Run a chipped ECU and get a conversion harness... then tow the car to dyno)
