Default Choosing a Engine......

ARG!!! I don't know what to do. I have had my Civic DX for a while now and I just recently got intrested in upgrading my car. I want to swap my engine out but I don't know which way to go. Some tell me B16A some say B16B and then some tell me to go LS. Which way would I get the most power and still be light as hell and have a decent amount of HP. I really want it for more accel than high end. I don't need a really high top speed.

Also lately I have been having a prob with my oil in my car..... I change it and then like 2 weeks half my oil is gone when I check it. I think it might be the seals.... But I don't see any leaks any where. I have looked every where and I can't find any thing. I don't smoke or anything out of my muffler. It just dissapears.. What can I do?

Thanx
