the b16 and b20 are all straight forward swaps requiring just the 99+ civic SI rear tranny mount and top driverside bracket and either an integra or 99+ civic si shiftlinkage and axles. The h22 requires either hasport or placeracing mounts and special axles. and several other stuff, with the b16 you will be very pleased with basic boltons, and wil be in the 15's easy and possibly high 14's with some good tires and driving. Unless you want to go b20/vtec it requires a lil motor attention to the build but will be very pleasing at the end, expect a high 13 with a b20/vtec with mild boltons and pistons...
i personally went with an ls/vtec but for you, i recommend a b16 for its simplicity and power.. -paul

well upgrading the pistons and rods to get a good compression if going allmotor, anywhere from 11-12.5:1 .. use some ARP headstuds, gsr oil/waterpump and timing belt, getting a block girdle.. little things. as for tranny you can use any b-series one..-paul

I cant stress a good oil pump enough on ls/B20-vtec motors, The non-vtec botom ends uualy run slightly loser tolerances so when the oil is needed to activate vtec the botom end can get starved of oil, the gsr should be ok but i'de go toda/spoon ect... just for peace of mind.
