youre sol dude. Vtech motors were discontinued.

on the other hand, VTEC motors can be put into any civic/delsol/hatch/integra/accord.

You want cheap then go find a Vtec head and have a shop slap it onto your LS block. LS/b16. done

go LS/V or put that money towards cams, cam gears, air/fuel tuning, and pulleys. if ur pistons and gaskets are still good, drop a 35 shot nitrous in there too.
