Default need ideas for a winter project.

well, winter is comming, and we all know how that goes.

boredom.

right now i have a b16 in my del sol. pretty much stock... just has a h/i/e and hasports.

im looking for a fun winter project. my "goal" would be a 275-300hp motor, that i can swap in, daily drive, drive hard, and not worry about destroying.

i was thinking of getting a b20 block, and going b20vtec and boosting it. use the stock b16 head, and trans. does a b20 use the same drivers side mount as a b16? i really dont feel like replacing my hasports.

i'd like to make it a fun little budget build, so getting a gsr block and building that would be beyond my imaginary budget at the moment.

would anyone like to toss out an idea?

Get an LS block instead of the CRV block, and upgrade the internals.
