If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Swap the original VTEC pressure switch into the new engine.

If using the original wire harness for a non-VTEC engine, now you will have to run a new wire to operate it...and you'll need a correct terminal/pigtail to install in the PCM connector for it.
Does this new engine use a knock sensor where the old engine did not?
