Default Project 17 build.

getting my tax return and i'm thinking about doing a cheap fun and experiencing shell build.
so the plan is that i find a clean 94+ integra shell and do a gsr OEM bottom end rebuild.
i'm looking at a clean 95 integra shell right now thats going for $2000.
to be honest i'm a rookie/average joe. i've watched OMINI's 200hp b16 build and i'll motivated.
also i'm thinking about spending overall 4500-5000 on the whole build.
anyone has any ideas or inputs?

spring/summer build for me

plans on the motor.. already found a stock gsr head with itr cams, need find a b18c1 block, order up ARP stud head and rod bolts, use old gsr crank rod's and bearings if still good. b16b pistons... i dont know much about internals but i think that's pretty much the plan.

1.are b16b pistons the right choice
2.would i need to bore the block?
3.what pistons are recommended?
