As long as the head is a D-series head it will bolt up fine. If you want the VTEC to work you wil need to hook up a controller. D16xx head will bolt onto D15xx block. You will need to get the right head gasket and timing belt. Some swaps even require getting an adjustable CAM gear since this swap tends to set the timeing off by half a tooth. There a tons of resourses on the web for this swap. I'm sure there are many threads on this forum even.

Good Luck

It will definitely mate up with it, just have to hook up some electrics and you may want to look into a new cpu from a car with vtec.
