Default Differences between Type R motors

Looking around, I've noticed that there are considerable price differences between buying a '96-97 Integra Type R motor and a '98-00 motor... why is this? do the newer ones perform better? what's the difference between the two sets of years?

I believe the newer one's have more aggresive cams similar to the CTR one's but don't hold your breath on that.

Its the intake cam that has slightly more duration.

The 2000-2001 models had a tubular style exhaust manifold.

Aside from that, the engines are the same

cool... so is this true of both the CTR and ITR engines? I've got a 98 DX hatch that is stock now and was trying to see how much money i'll need to put together in order to get a motor swapped in, but wasn't sure which one to shoot for...
