Default what engine?

I have a 93 si with a crappy SOHC VTEC, i am going to swap an engine in it but im not sure which one yet. I was thinking of a B16b, B16a, or a B18c, i would like to get the b16b since it has all of the typeR parts already, but i cant find it anywhere for under $3500. Im worried that if i get the jdm b16a that it wont be in as good of condition as the b16b since they were mass produced and not hand assembled like the b16b and other typeR engines. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Search. It honestly depends on how much you want to spend, get a B18C5.

Go to the last post on the first page, there are h22 vs b18 and b18 vs b16 threads.
