Default Motor

Ok.. i have a 94 honda del sol.. and im wanting to do motor/tranny swap.. and yes i know its a lot of work.. and i dont mind bc ill be working on a car.. but my true question is what motor would be better i DO plan on boosting it.. i was thinking about a K series.. and yes i know they get costly.. but i have a good job selling cars.. so thats not really a problem.. and what tranny.. i was thinking a b18c1.. b16a2.. or a h22.. maybe even a K 20.. im just looking for alot of power due to the fact that it IS gonna be a track car.. and show car.. and i am planning on a bodykit.. and if any of you have something to say about the kit.. I DO NOT CARE. it is MY car i paid for it.. not yours.. and i WILL make it look how i want.. and no i do not mean to be rude.. i just hate it when people tell other people how to make there cars look.. but i was just wandering what motor will be able to handle around 18-20 pounds of boost.. was looking at the H22 or the K20.. and this is just to get a general idea.. not a motor from.. im just curious.. .. and if this is in the wrong fourm.. im sorry.. move it if u wish.. but as far as the flameing goes.. it wont change my mind on what my plans are.. so it would be a waste of time on your part..

Slap a GSR in there with forged internals with a lower CR.

Boost that **** on 30psi.

Run 700whp all day, and be happy.
