Default B series 1.6 and 1.8 motor ?

Ok, I am now finished with my suspension " Neuspeed/Koni SP3 shocks all around, and Coilovers".

Now I am looking for a B series motor to have fun with. I dont really care what I get, I am just lookin for the best deal, and trying not to spend over 2000 for the basic motor (block, head, In+Ex Manifold, Dist., and ECU.

I am thinking of geting the block and head sperate, I have 1000 to spend now, and I want to get a 1.6 head, and get it ported to start me off. And then I still have the option of a 1.8 or a 1.6 block.

My goal is to make 160-180whp N/A. So its not to far out there, but this is just to start me out..... I dont want to set the line to high, and spend alot of money right away, I want to make this build more of a learning experience.

So im lookin for a stock B16 head, B16 or B18 Block for a decent price.

Also can somone help me out as far as what I need to do to reach my goal, I am a gearhead, and I know the basics, open up the flow, and how to tune, but I need to know the results of a B16 head with a B18 block, I have heard people talk about it, and did some research on the net, but didnt come up with much.... So anything will help.
