Then either one would work. I guess the real question is; Why are you suddenly waffling in the middle of a build?

Good question I'm clueless on what to do now lol.im leaning more the b18c block just cause I have done all that work to my head already and to start all over again would suck.what kind of power would I be looking at with the b18c block with 550cc injectors and a good tune.i know the h22a7 out the box is 215 220 but is a h2b a setup for a daily driver

This question doesn't make any sense. It comes out of a Prelude. How is it NOT a good candidate for a daily?

H2B is the swap choice of many its just more difficult then a B but its very much worth the power trust me

Cause I'll do a h2b setup but don't know in the long run if any issues will happen with that plate I know I will need either a LSD or a type r tranny and need to upgrade the axles

If your looking for good power go with an H2B setup its worth the time and hassle. A buddy of ours has an H23 with ITR tranny, K series intake manifold, SSR Header and Blox C Cams and he's making like 240whp.
