If your going to redo the wiring I would use the 88-89 blacktop manual harness which is OBD0, grab a PS9 or the 90-93 teg equivalent, basically it's a MPFI OBD0 ECU that is for an automatic trans, and you can add 1 wire to the automatic trans pin on the ecu and reprogram the ecu for 1-wire vtec. The Integra wiring should be close to bolting right in, you may have to stretch some plugs to different locations, but you can either let the extra stuff hang like for the pop up headlights or pull it out. From what people tell me OBD0 is an easy DIY tune. You can jump that to OBD1 if you want and run an OBD1 computer. If you can not find the Vtec computer Xenocron makes a kit where you can use an ordinary DX/LX computer and add the circuitry for the Vtec. Might need to take it to someone to tune though. Best thing about using the EW block is it has really thick cylinder walls which means you don't have to sleeve it for boost like 88-up D series motors Heres a thread about rod/piston combo and hope that helps!

Mr Fixit, hello there. Are any of these blocks still available? I have recently rebuilt 87 Sedan with a D15A2 block but my next project would be to do another engine for it with some modifications. Are these blocks still stock, not even resurfaced? Where are you located? My zip would be 33189. Thanks!!
