Its a very simple swap. You can reuse all your mounts. You will have to wire in VTEC, however its rather simple. The Mini-me DIY Article mentions how to do that.

If You havn't already bought your d16z6 swap then I would recommned getting a JDM D15b VTEC(not vtec-e, but VTEC) or a JDM ZC VTEC as given they only have 30k on them they are most likely in better shape then any d16z6 you get your hands on State side.
