We've had a member here I can't remember his name but, he was able to do a b16 swap with 0 honda backround got it running like a champ alone in a w/e his first post was telling us how usefull search is.
It's not too hard but its not simple.

very hard swap...... thats why there are about 32 billion people on honda-tech that have done this swap.
yeah, you should search like everyone screamed at you to do... but if you dont think youre up to the task, please dont screw up a stock honda for the next owner that might be able to do something with it.

keep your stuff organized. Get a magnetic parts tray and a box of zip-lock baggies from the food mart. Those two things were the biggest help for my swap.
There's printouts for everything electronically related, and everything is in the SEARCH function.
If it's not too hard, they should make it kinda glow, like a pulsating red.
