So you think the best course of action would be to get a b18c and rebuild from there? Or would I be better off going with a b20 or something. I'm not afarid to rebuild the engine from the ground up and do it over time. I'm thinking this could be a long term project. Get the car going again, work on the suspension, etc. While slowly building an engine in the meantime. I just don't want to get something that's going to cause me to modify the chassis, etc. b/c it opens up all new problems.
