Dizzy (don't know which model/year yet just know its gotta be b series and vtec)

Dowel pins for conversion if it's not in the kit
Stock modified head gasket or lsv head gasket if it's not in the kit
Tap to plug oil port on head
New radiator hoses
Coolant
I prefer the sandwich plate for oil line
New plugs
New cap and rotor
B series vtec water pump an matching belt
ITR oil pump
Did I miss anything?

For the love of god make sure you dont use a stock LS headgasket. You HAVE to remove the front to copper pins or they will get smashed in between the head and block. Ive seen this way to many times and to many people saying you can use it without any modification because they dont know what they are talking about. I would suggest just getting a lsv headgasket from golden eagle or another company as it the easiest route.
You can run it with a p72 ecu but it wont run to its full potential. If you wan the most out of it your going to have to get a chipped ecu. I personally run chipped p28 ecus.
More things to consider would be adjustable cam gears and an adjustable fuel pressure regulator just to get things running the best they can. Good luck.

Nothing wrong with a stock LS head gasket as long as you do it right. I've been rocking one in my lsv crx for 5yrs with no issues.
Don't buy any aftermarket crap, just get it running then upgrade.
There is nothing wrong with an ls head gasket as long as you modify them, but ive had at least 5 lsv come through my shop where they didnt pull the coper rings out and they just dumped oil out the front of the motor.
