Default is the B16A I found worth it

I have a 94 civic ex with d16z6. This is my second engine. They wont hold up to racing. I have just found a motor with head and intake manifold laying in a junk yard. The block says B16A. No 1 or 2? what is it where did it come from. Andis it worth buying and building for my car? It is missing the crank, dist, cams, and misc. things but is solid for a build and they will take 200$. Is it worth it? What can I do for a crank? Will any b-series work. And what tranny's will work. What will it take to make this work. And what can I expect to get back in power and performance for my hard work and money?

Hell yeah, I'd buy that in a heartbeat. As for the crank, I'm sure you can pick up a used b16a crank (any b16a crank will do) from somebody here for around 80$. Just post in classifieds.
