You are going to have a hard time finding that old of an ECU at the junkyard or anywhere in STL. i would try posting a WTB on honda-tech.com and seeing if you can get one shipped. Be sure to add Year and model when posting the WTB so people know what ecu you need.

i dont know off the top of my head of any ECUs that could be swapped in.

Man,i just saw a super clean complete 87 crx si in a yard when i was in ohio. You might try looking them up and calling them? its in cleveland ohio and its a huge pick and pull. They might be able to ship it? The crx was nearly spotless. It was one of those cars you see at a yard and wonder why its even there...anyway hope this helps and good luck!
