Default plans for future mods

Alright, I'm kinda looking into the future with respect to what I want to do to my car, and I've been thinking about just getting an engine swap as opposed to working on my existing B18B... Now I was looking at two different engines, namely the B18C and the F20B (my idea for the latter coming from here)

Now my question to you is this...which would you all recommend and why? I'm assuming the F20 will have more torque, cause of its larger displacement, but what about parts availability?

My limiter here is, to a certain extent, money...I'd like to pay no more than 3k for the engine and all required parts, and I'm seeing here that the F20 is well within reach given my tentative budget. Now, if I were to go with this engine, I'm paying more to begin with, but I also get the guarantee that I'll be able to find parts for the thing.

So, what say you?

Any help would be greatly appreciated...I'm planning ahead for my mods, and I just really don't know quite enough at this point to determine what I should do.

Peace
Brian

P.S.: If anyone knows of a better/more reliable place online to get complete engines, lemme know!
