Default apart from the ZC, what else is an easy swap

I'm having a tough time making up my mind here on a swap

It needs to be an easy swap (no major wiring issues), and im on a budget (under 2k not including labor)

help

Next easy swap into the EF would be the si motor swap in case you do not have the d16a6 swap

my basic problem here is that my d15 is a goner, and i need a new engine, but im hindered by lack of wiring skill and on a budget

not looking for b18 numbers, just something with a bit more *****

well i originally checked out jdmsource.ca at their zc prices, which didnt seem bad considering all that comes wtih the package. Seems like everything i'd need (hopefully)

and i was checking out ebay as well, and there are some B16's to be had on there for around a G, so i was kinda peeking at those.

I'm looking for a complete under-the-hood deal (EVERYTHING i need) for under 1500-1700

b16 with everything else needed to be driveable?

Im not sure what all is supposed to come with the engine/tranny, but if i were to get it then i would want everything in one shot.

i see lots of ones for just the engine, but what about all the rest? Thats why i was leaning more towards the ZC, because it seems to have everything ineed

The b16 should come complete from a resource of imported b16 engines.

Um, no. Mounts? Replacing old gaskets? Wiring harness for 2 o2's and vtec?
Possibly the ECU and axles?

You wont do it for 1500 for a clean well running B16A swap unless you have someone to seriously hook you up. In the real world.

You are an idiot. You don't even use the search function here do you.
