Default which ecu do i use....

I have a 1990 honda civic si hatch. I blew the d16a6 a while back, then i paid for a zc head and
block from a local shop then just put the manifolds on the zc motor.

my Question is.. which ecu do i use for that motor.

Right now iam useing the ecu from the original motor that was in the car (D16A6). the main
reason for this question is because i am wasting TONS and TONS of gas, and from what i understand
is that the zc head has a faster cam in it.

I come to this site to find all of my automotive questions and to help out anybody out if i am
able to. Some of u guys that have responded to my posts in the past have been real helpful
and i thank them for that.

the pm7 dohc zc jdm ecu will work for my motor even though it is a single cam? i didnt know that
was possible. How hard is it to get a hold of one of those ecus? How much difference will it have on
the car than if i were to use the pg7 usdm 88-89 teg ecu? Would i be able to pass smog with either
of those ecus? I kmow some guy on here chips ecus, whats his name and would that be a better way
to go.

THANX for the info guys!
