Default b16a3 or b18c1

i cant seem to find a b18c1 for a good price but i have found 00 Si motors for a good amount. Should i juss wait and spend the extra $500 more for the c1 or juss get the Si motor? The motor will be going into a 93 civic dx hatchback and i will be doin basics mods such as i/h/e.

well it depends
if you want an 11 second street car, its not gonna matter because each engine will be totally rebuilt but if you just want a car thats semi quick
wait for the b18c1.

I think you'd be happier with the gsr motor. Wait it out.
