B16A or B18B?

After reading this thread https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=926533

I am wondering if I should keep my 2000 Si b16 swap or build an LS swap for my civic dx coupe?

I wanna keep it ALL MOTOR and under $1000.

Which one would you choose and why?

keep ur b16a and use the 1000 to work it

rather then spend the 1000 to build the b18b swap.

Re: (qcktegls)

thanks for the imput.

Any sites or links that give instructions on how to do an LS/VTEC....you know the tapping of oil lines or some bullshit like that.
