Default Kswap or resleeve a b20

So I have a question and couldn’t find any good threads. I want to know what would make my life easier. I’m looking to either resleeve my b20 block or swap a k24 into my rd1 crv. What is the consensus on this and what do y’all recommend

Sleeving a B20 will cost you $2000+. If that helps.

Not knowing cars intent, assuming street driving, k24 is more sensible.

If your CRV already has a "B" series engine in it, and the engine is damaged... why would you re-sleeve the block instead of replacing it ? Re-installing a B20 block that essentially matches what you currently have would be MUCH easier to accomplish than a complete "K" swap.

yeah I was thinking that would still be cheaper than a full k swap because I would need all the the other parts along with the block

people forget that in order to have a good running k swapped car, you will need a good engine management setup, which is usually $1k and up
