Default D16Z6 in place of D15B7?

Just wondering if a D16Z6 will swap right in place of a D15B7. My cousin just blew a hole in the block of his 92 civic dx, which has the D15B7 in it. He said I can have the car for parts or whatever, but I'm thinkin about just swappin a new engine in. I've been lookin around online and eBay and it seems that most people are selling D15B VTEC's, which they say are replacements for D16Z6's?

Anyway, these are a few of the engines I found... just wanna know how hard it'd be to swap:

A D15B7 will swap right in with the exception that this is a NON VTEC engine.

yea thanks smartass. I already tried searching. You could just not be an ******* and say "yes, it's an easy swap" or "no, it's going to be a pain in the ***"

LOL, take what I said and reverse it. The engine will swap in fine and all you have to do is wire up VTEC.
