actually,this is not true. Alot of b series parts are not interchangable. For example the GSR intake manifold will only fit on a GSR head,likewise a b16/itr manifold will not fit on a ls/gsr head. A GSR oil pan will work on a ls block,but a LS oilpan willnot fit on a GSR block (using the gsr oil pickup). Theres more,but you get the jist.
Onto the question....building a lsvtec is simple,your going to get what you put into it. Meaning,if you half ass the job,or just slap it together,your going to get a half ass motor. If you take the time to do things right,and build it right,your going to have a good motor. You cant just simply take a vtec head and slap it on a non vtec block and call it a day. There is alot you have to do to make it reliable.
I could sit here and either A) do a write up for you,or B) link up a how to page,but i dont think this is going to be your best bet. To be honest (and not to sound mean,dont take anything i say personal),but it seems like you are either A) new to the scene, or B) dont have alot of wrench time behind you. I would STRONGLY discourage you from doing this,and attempting yourself. This is not something to be taken lightly,and not something that is easy. A little mistake and you could be looking for a whole new motor....
If your serious about getting it done,id go to a local shop and get some quotes. You might find it possibly easier/cheaper just to go get a gsr longblock,depends on what deals you can find.
But like said,they can be reliable motors, and VERY rewarding,if built right. I speak from experience having a "stock" boosted ls-v,and now a fully built ls-v.
Even though i STRONGLY discourage you from attmepting this yourself,here is a write up.

Whatever you do,good luck....
