Default Engine Swap - 98 DX

Hey I have a 98 Civic Dx, and I'm gonna swap out my motor for a B16A2, but I'm not exactly sure what exactly is involved with it. Does anyone know exactly what parts I need. Also, is going from a non-VTEC to VTEC more complicated? more expensive?

Need Help.

you'll need to use your stock harness, 99 si driver's bracket, rear tranny bracket and some wiring diagrams.
