best SWAP need input!
Trying to find a new legal motor to replace a d15b in my 99 civic hatch. Im on a budget so considering b18b or b20. I heard b18b dont pass smog for **** and I am unfamiliar with the b20 build. How difficult would it be to put a b20 in my hatch? I only see the long block for b20 on hmotors so I wonder how much is it gonna be when its finished. Which one would be less trouble and most affordable?

Not sure what state you live in, but Allmotor is right about CA - B20 = not legal. And yes, B18B can be smogged. Make sure you have the right ECU and Cat!
