Why swap in a B16A2/B16A3 when you could just buy the Del Sol VTEC?

I'd swap in a B18C1 if you're on a budget, or a B18C5 if it's possible. If you KNOW there's an accomplished shop/mechanic in your area that could build you a B20/VTEC, then that's an option as well. But a good B20/VTEC will cost more than a B18C1/B18C5 swap if you build it right and use the right tranny too.

I just would not want a motor that was already available in that car anyways - where's the fun and uniqueness in that?
