Default questions putting obd1 jdm d15b into 96 civic ex

ok, i tried to avoid this post, and i've search several different ways and googled the crap out of it, i get alot of half or mixed up answers and completely bogus answers to some of these questions.
ok i'm doing a swap for my brother this weekend, he has a 96 civic ex, d16y8, motor needs to be replaced, i have already got him an obd1 jdm d15b. I was just gonna reuse his old manifold and dizzy including sensors with old obd2 harness, but i was told i can't reuse the dizzy because it won't bolt to the obd1 head. the obd1 dizzy for the jdm motor is still intact and i can use it i hope.
So does anyone know of any issues i will probably encounter? has anyone ever seen a write up for this swap, i assume with will be very much the same as a write up for putting a z6 motor into a 96-98 ex. If anyone has any idea's, please help, i just want to be prepared for this before i dig into it this weekend where i may be without internet access doing this swap. and if you find these answers quickly, please don't flame this **** out of me about it, i have looked for a few hours with no solid answers.

oh, i'm reuising as much of the old stuff as possible, wiring, ecu, etc, mechanically i can do the swap just fine, but this will be my first go around putting a obd1 motor into a obd2 car, thats what i need a little direction on, if you find a link, please post.
