Default A6/y8? B7/y8? B6/y8? or just y8?

I have 4 motors and 3 Transmissions at my disposal, to use what I want as I please

88 CRX HX 8 valve, (needs rings)
94 Sedan B7 (bad rod knock)
91 hatch A6 (bad water pump)
and a 400$ Complete y8 that we know NOTHING about

94 DX 5 Speed trans with 250,xxx Miles (works fine, no noises)
91 LX sedan 5 Speed trans with 160,xxx Miles (throwout bearing starting to get a little noisy)
91 Si Trans, seams to work fine but haven't driven it more than 2 miles

My car- 1990 Civic LX-daily
My Goal- A nice peppy little daily, that has enough power to get me up hills and around the corners. Not really a freeway car, but i am for sure keeping my power steering, maybe my ac.

Other things I have, DC 4-2-1 CARB header, Aem CAI CARB legal, and supposedly the A6 head doesn't have a stock am in it. It felt really quick, but idk if it was "cam" quick.

Using the above information, what do you thing is the best combination, spending the least amount of cash, do accomplish my goals?

There is a slim possibility that I will be acquiring a set of Ninja ZX-10 ITB's.... so I might be going that route!

Its been a while since i got on here, but im excited to be working on my car again!

Also will be purchasing a new flywheel/clutch kit. What weight flywheel would be best, not sure how much torque i want to give up for some higher RPM HP
