IMO JDM B18

yeah im leaning more towards the JDM b18c (178hp)
even though im a fan of the b16b but thats more money.
i was wondering if you guys know any good sites? with good prices?

Use the del sols current B series tranny with a JDM B18 motor, it will blow you away. B16's are still great, but B18's have the low end torque that the B16's dont have.

i'd def go with the jdm GSR motor bro. if you can piece together a swap and go with a b16 tranny. If not you can find a complete swap online/local/classifieds. i would try hmotorsonline.com, extremejdm.com, jdmshit.com. I've used all three of these shops which are local to me and nothing but quality bro.

Yes

of course with that same 3K you could get the edlebrock turbo kit and be pushing quite abit more WHP than any of your swap options

Eg2-del sol

im going to stay N/A for now. but in the future i might go turbo...

If you still want OEM reliability, I suggest putting CTR or ITR cams, and valve springs, retainers, etc.
