The most economical and efficient way is probably to do a Integra GSR swap, which I believe is the B18C1. Great engine! Nice point to start.

By the way, that's what I heard. . . not that I know or anything

ae86_16v: yes the B18C1 is his best option and he won't need too much money to pull it off if he can find a decent donor car. The hardest part of the whole swap is getting the computer to recognize the new engine. The engine will turn over and run without any trouble without the computer reflash but the rev limiter will be a lot lower and the Vtec system will be quite a bit off, that's if you have it to begin with. Everything will plug up to your old harness. the whole project basically consists of removing and replacing.
