Default 95 B18 to vtec swap/ parts and cosmetics

I have a 1995 Acura integra LS and it has a B18B1 engine in it which is non vtec, which vtec engine would I have to swap it out for?

ALSO, Where can I find OEM parts for my integra?

Dealership or online like Ebay you can find OEM parts but any dealership can order any part you need as long as its still made.

Becareful with ebay, there are legit dealers selling parts, but there are also sellers selling knockoff Honda waterpumps, timing belts ,etc.

You bet your candy *** you can! lol jk but YES you can put a Vtec cylinder head on a non vtec bottom end like a B18 or B20. (LS-Vtec // B20-Vtec)

will it give me the benefits or somewhat the benefits of VTEC? I’m not talking anything crazy but will the engine gain anything?

Yes you have the advantage of the extra tq from the LS or B20 Bottom end and the top end power from the Vtec head.
