You will want a 94-95 ls swap, since those are OBDI just like your car, and they have the hydro tranny, so no special hydro->cable mounts needed.
Best way to get max performance out of the LS, is to do headwork, and then turbo it. Its a prime candidate for good HP numbers because of its lower CR numbers.
I say that because I am not a fan of LS/Vtec, if the engine didnt come with a vtec head, then dont put it on there.
My opinion, get the head worked on, and boost the **** out of it.

Yeah port and polish, maybe some new valves and valvesprings. People go with the gsr, b16 or C5 head because they want the high end power, which can easily be cured by a turbo kit.
