Default Swap Help

Never done a swap before and i've researched a little bit but i still need some major "clear" info on the swap i'm trying 2 perform

I have a 1990 Honda Civic LX 4DR sedan, the engine i want to swap into it is a B16B OBD2a

If i buy this motor from totaljdm.com it comes with:
Items Included with the Swap:
5-Speed Manual Hydraulic Transmission
Engine Control Unit (ECU)
Distributor
Intake Manifold
Exhaust Manifold
Alternator
Air Conditioning Pump
Power Steering Pump
Vtec Solenoid
Half Shaft (Intermediate Shaft)
Available Options (if in-stock):
Axles: $75.00USD
Shift Linkage: $70.00USD

Now after i purchase this motor, what more do i need to get it running, and what problems will i encounter with trying to perform this swap. As i said previously i have no clue how different gen motors work with older gen cars.

Thanks
Steve

Don't forget motor mounts. Have to get the cable to hydro conversion ones.

I'm not sure if the lx has the resistor box for you injectors, so you might want to look into that also.

Hope that helps out some.
