swapcivic97

i have a 97 civic HX coupe, i have been saving for quite a while now for a swap. i have enough cash to consider all motors with the exception of the k20a, my question is whats the best way to go for an all around street car? don't want just a straight up drag, i like the way the car drives now don't want to loose handling/ a definite is LSD, but not sure to go with B16A2, B16B, B18C (gsr) or (Ls) B18C (R), B20, H22A, H22-s, H23. i know that a R motor is ideal but is it really worth the 2 or 3g's more? couldn't you just throw a lil cash in one of the other motors to get the performance you want ? and would the H22 or B20 be to sluggish in the car and throw off the balance and weight to cause poor handling. i don't know much about the B20 but from what i hear it can make a powerful all motor swap ! and there is no preference to N/A or turbo leaning to all motor right now though i want reliability as well........ wow if you read all of this THANKS FOR THE TIME and definitely thanks for the input ! oh and please no haters just a noob who want help !
