RE: b16 swap
Double check me on this, but I don't think that the axles match between any B series and D series engine. If that's the case, then you'd need axles too (and probably a hub to match those axles). You should be able to find an auto tranny out there (unless all b16's were made with manual ones, which I doubt). You'll almost certainly need the ECU for the right engine, I haven't heard of the ECUs matching up between different letter series engines...
Depending on which B16 you get, you'll get 150-180 hp at the crank. When I want to check engine specs for Honda engines, I go to wikipedia, so if someone else on here says those numbers aren't accurate, you should trust that person. I'm just going off wikipedia here
