Default Which engine should I buy?

Looking at a few different engines in my area to get my car running while I save up for a B series. My engine is no longer of this world.

Any info and suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks guys

I vote the Y7 for $350.....you need to save every penny you can to get that B series up and running!

Assuming you have a 92-95 SI or EX, Buy the Z6, plug and play swap, the Y7's are not plug in swaps as they are OBD2 motors which involves a buncha wiring and modifications to run correctly as well as you will need a new ECU.

X2 Then you could also get the D16Y8 head and build yourself a MiniMe swap in the future while saving for your B-Series.
