Question f23 head on f22 block??

I drive a 92 accord wagon with a stock f22 engine in it and i wanna go vtec. i was considering just doing an h22 swap, but i'd rather stick with the f22 block for the thicker cylinder walls in case i go for forced induction down the road. also, i am pretty sure a head would be cheaper than a whole engine.. to the best of my knowledge it should be a straight bolt on.. not too sure tho. also, i have no idea when it comes to what i'd hafta do to the ecu.. any ideas? i'd love to hear em before i do this with no real idea if it'll work or not

appreciate the help. from the vtec fblocks ive seen it looks like it'll be pretty damn near a direct fit. still a bunch of little things that are typical with any swap tho..
