Ok, I have searched for this and cant find any real straight answers, I dont know if I am searching for the wrong thing or what, and I am sure that I am going to get shot for this post, but...

Im building a 1997 Civic EX Coupe, the goal is to run a 12.5sec 1/4 mile. I was thinking of going with a B20/VTEC. Should I let a company like DART, or IMPORTBUILDERS build the block for me or should I do it myself with a few friends to save some money? I dont really have as much money as the title suggests but it it would be more reliable etc. to send it to someone then I can do that, but I also have a 93 RX7 that is a money pot so it would be nice to keep this one one the afordable side of things... Thoughts??

 

the thing I see most and it holds true every time.

fast, reliable, cheap. pick 2.
