Default Blown Engine, need help

Well heres the low down, i got a 95 Accord LX 2.2L Non-vtech engine in my Accord and the seals are going out and its leaking oil like no other, but i gotta make a choice between swapping in an engine or selling my accord to my friend for $5000, yes i said 5k and he knows its gonna blow, and getting a 240sx hatch and doing an SR20DET swap in that. And if i do stay with the accord which engine would it be best to swap in. I've heard good things about tegra LS turbocharged engines, but theres always the option of h22a and the type R. Anything would really help me out. I am deffinitley boosting the engine i put in also.

5 grand, i'd sell it! This kid eat paint chips growing up or what?

Yeah the popular thing it seems is to put in the H22. Another option would be to rebuild the thing and put the VTEC head on it, maybe even turbo it.

I would still sell it though, shoot you could probably buy another 5th gen Accord for 5k. If you look around you might even find an EX with the VTEC head on it, get a stick too. If you do that make sure you laugh at your friend while he's rebuilding the motor!
