Default Should I B16,B18 or H22 my 89 CRX DX?????

So i just bought a 89 CRX DX and its bone stock! i had a 89 HF a couple years back but the motor was toast so i put a 93 Civic DX block in it and Re-welded the mounts to make it fit. it still runs but i sold it. so now im starting fresh and want to do a good clean swap. i have the knowledge to do it i just would like help to figure what would be the best bet? so you guys should throw me some info this direction.
thanx a lot Colby.

What are your goals, What's your budget? Before you can get a legitimate response, you should provide some more details.

Personally, I say none of the above. K is the future, get a k20a

JDM integra type R. Here are a couple of guides/write up's about swapping motor's and what's involved. Also, check out the FAQ at the top of the page.

Go with a b18c they go right in the k20 is alot more work and money and
with a b series you don't have to cut a hole in the hood. I have a b18c5
in a 91 hatch it's fun and reliable mid 13s and 32mpg

why do these threads constantly clutter up this forum? Goto the faqs page at the top of the forum, look in there under what people have done before you and what their results were. Stop letting others make your decisions and evaluate what YOU want out of your ride.

Now would someone please lock this.

This is why these kinds of threads suck. All you're going to get is people telling you to go with the same setup that they have.

How about a fully built D with a turbo kit? Im pretty sure this would cost less that a B18c swap or a K20 swap. N/a is the way tho. Im just a die hard D fan.
