Default Ls vtec or b16?

I have a 91 civic hatchback dx and am saving up for a b16 from hmotorsonline and drop it in there...I've already done almost everything else on the car..suspension,brakes,etc. But a deal came along for an ls vtec...the ls vtec motor for 1 grand...thats pretty good I thought..but I will still need a transmission, ecu, motor mounts, shift linkage (dont' know which one will work)...the b16 was gonna cost me about 2 grand in all with lsd, shipping, it would be a complete change over though....I have a friend who does great work and can help me drop either motor in...which do yall recommend. I know that the ls vtec doens't last long etc...but this is my weekend race car..I have a daily driver already. Which one would be more bang for the buck. How much extra would it cost me to get the lsvtec going? What mounts, likages etc would I need? The ls vtec motor is brand new too..0 miles
