Honestly man that's going to be a bitch to put in. It's an economy vtec 115hp HX motor. It's not the same as a D16z6 or D16y8 vtec motor, it's ment for economy at lower RPMS. It's also an OBD-2 motor, so you're going to have to go OBD-2 to OBD-0 (maybe the opposite). Honestly I'd sell it and buy a different motor (at least an OBD-1 real vtec motor), but that's just my opinion.

I believe you have an vtec-e engine.
