Default F22B2 to JDM F23 problems

My car is a 97 Accord SE, the original engine was the F22B2 I4 NON-VTEC engine. I had a shop do the swap to a F23 2.3 VTEC engine. The engine is running but when I try and use the jdm ECU my car won't start. They DID run the VTEC wires but they used the distributor from my f22 engine. Aren't the VTEC and non-VTEC distributors different? Would this cause my car not to start with the VTEC ecu? The ecu that came with the JDM engine is PCG-901 and my original one works in the car but VTEC won't engage.
