    Default question about obd2 swap in obd1 car..

    well a friend of mine just bought an obd2 LS swap. hes planning on dropping it in his EG. what all would he need to drop this swap in his car? the swap came complete minus the axels.

    1) what engine harness does he need? obd1 or obd2?
    2) what conversion harness? obd2-->obd1 or obd1-->obd2?

    basically what we'r trying to figure out is what obd the car is going to end up being after the swap?
    (not sure if i worded my questions right, sorry)

    thanks for all input in advance!
