If you want an Integra engine why not go with a GSR or a Type-R one? That way you will have VTEC and more HP.

you can find an ls for cheaper than a b16. I personally would get the ls, it has a lot more torque.

B16 has a shorter geared tranny though.

you can use the b16 tranny with the ls if you want the shorter gears.

I have a B16 and its just not enough, but my car is a heavy pig. I am in the midst of building a LS block right now to slap my head on.
