Default might build my own engine

i was thinking of swapping a b16a2 in a 2000 civic si for another spoon engine
then i went through another post where some guy said something about
why swap when you can build your engine, and it could be better than
almost any spoon engine in almost every way?
my question is where would i even begin to build my own engine?

most spoon engines that are for sale now a days are just balanced and blueprinted oem blocks...for the money that you would spend on a spoon engine, they were right you can build a better one...where to start? well you need to think of what your planning on doing with it..n/a, turbo,nitrous,ect...you have to do your research and once you figure out where you want to go with it, we can help you a little better
