It should bolt up, and I believe the TPS should work, but I can't remember if the OBD generation matters or not.

I AM PRETTY SURE THAT THE TPS SHOULD WORK. I PUT A TPS FROM A 92 CIVIC 1.5 ON A 99 B16 MOTOR AND IT WORKED FINE I DONT THNK IT IS POSSIBLE TO UES THAT HEAD ON THAT BLOCK THOUGH . THE HEAD GASKETS ARE DIFFERENT.

88-91 Civic DX D15's TP sensors wont swap over. the run backwards of D16 TP sensors. only the 88-91 Si D16 TP sensors, and 92+ sensors are interchangeable.

Yes the y8 head will swap on to your b7 block, not sure on the tps but I would imagine that it would swap also...
