From your boundaries, both of those options you mentioned are good.

As for other questions you have I would suggest searching recent/archived topics in the hybrid forum, and EG+/Del Sol forum to find out more answers.

If you can find a legit GSR swap for 2500 go for it. Make sure the motor is not junk. $1200 for a B16? Are you sure it's not a first generation B16A1? What big cities is Humble TX near?

make sure those motors are legit. seems too good of a price. however, if its legit with life still left in it, you've got yourself a killer deal. personally, i'd go with the gsr.
