96 civic hatch engine swap help

[CT RaCiNg13]

so i posted this in the wrong section but what would be the best motor to swap into a 96 civic hatch im gonna have about 2 grand to play around with, i was thinking the b16 would be key with simple bolt-on's or the b18b1 wouldnt be that bad either being as you can make ls/vtec out of it, if anyone has answers it would most appreciated

you used the s word....theyre gonna kill you for that....especially since you live in D-town, CT.

and you can do a b16 swap for around 2 grand.

(and you posted in the wrong section again. moved)

try b20b/z! both motors left stock pulls hard. also a great canidate for b20-vtec conversion. not a good canidate for turbo charge applications though!
