Default B16 Dead what to do next???

After recent events I have discovered my B16 in my Eg has possibley thrown a rod!!! I decided that since I will be tearing it apart to find out what the hell is wrong that I would build either a b20 vtec or a Ls vtec. Was looking for thoughts on my situation. It was a JDM B16 with an LSD so I'm keeping the tranny just not really sure which way to go!!!

It's up to you. It's whatever deal you find these days. B series deals are slowly going cheaper.

well if the head is still good then buy a cheap b20 block and go that route. My 2 cents.
