Default mini-me swap suggestions?

So, my girlfriend's Dad wants the VTEC head and intake manifold that I'm selling so he can do a mini-me swap.

SO, I have the VTEC head, VTEC solenoid, intake manifold, and throttle body.

I don't have the timing belt, spark plugs, spark plug wires, distributor, or P28 ECU.

I've searched through HCF and found this https://www.hondacivicforum.com/m_45390/tm.htm
(Basically step by step instructions)

Do you guys/girls have any tips or advice about doing a mini-me swap?!

Thanks!!

if your gonna do a z6 swap on to a d15 block. Remeber this, this pistons in the z6 and d15 are totally different. a z6 heads valves will hit the d15 pistons.

i would find a good z6 block, that already has the pistons installed. im not sure if the pistons fit in the d15 block.
also if you do the swap its very easy on those cars, all you need to doo is install the head, and the dizzy. you can use any intake manifold you whish dont have to me the z6 but if you have it use it..

i did one awhile back heres theres only 4 wires that need to be hooked up. and make sure when you pull of your d15 head, on top of the block were the head and block come together there is a little oil jet in the center in the middle it needs to be removed.
