Default ls vtec question

i have a 94 civic coupe with a ls in it with a gsr trans and the timing belt just broke luckily i have a spare complete b16 head but i need to know exactly what i need to run this head on my car. I know i need a golden eagle ls vtec conversion kit and a gsr timing belt and water pump but what else? I'm not going to be reving very high but idk what i can rev the stock block to safely. And i'm going to order an ecu from phearable.net for the tune then get it dyno tuned. thanks need replies fast i'm without a car right now.

arp head studs will go a long way. as long as you're not beating the **** out of it everyday you should be fine with a stock block.

arp head studs, hoever the most important thing is the arp rod bolts, regardless of what its going to reved to,
arp rod bolts, you should be able to rev 7500 safely...
but dont push your luck, rods bolts are a good safty thing, but ls's wernt designed to rev to high.
