Default Mismatched mini-me parts

I bought a '99 Civic with a mini-me swap. Seems the last guy did most of the swap right, but didn't finish it up. I cannot stress how important it is to finsh strong, no matter what you do. Anyway, now I'm trying to figure out which parts from which car I have. Is there a list somewhere on here of which casting numbers are from which car or denote which engine and where to find those numbers? I would really like to know what I have. I've had to rewire the harness to clear a couple codes and get it running decent and would like to be able to smooth it out a little bit more. Thanks in advance .

Do you know what all is missing from the motor to finish it? And if you could tell me the motor code and the head code. From there I can help you a little more.

Thanks for the offer.
The motor is complete, but a little mismatched & I have a feeling that's what is causing the quircky behavior. "Interchangeable" means different things to different people I guess.
I really don't even know where to look for those numbers.
Found a local tuner who seemed to really know his stuff. He told me its a D16Z6 head, but the block only says AAA where the numbers should be. Apparently its a grey market JDM block. He sold me a matching throttle body and intake for a Z6, and gave me quite a bit of other info. Sunday its going on and we'll see if we can nail down the 02 sensor code as well.
I'll let you know how it all pans out.
