    sorry about that, i guess being precise would help. I need to know wiring to the ecu. Rywire is taking care of engine harness. Also will an obd0 to obd1 ecu jumper harness work with 89 lxi? I only see them listed for civic or crx.

    The ECU is the least of your worries. It's just like plugging in a new radio.

    Once you get to actually bolt the engine in the car with it's axles, exhaust and shifter, you know it's almost done.

    use eg swap axles... custom mounts.. get the axles first before mounting the engine so you can line everything up then start on the mounts. you will most likely have to cut/weld the driver-side mount bracket to make room for the larger one/relocation.
