Default K20A3 or K24A4

New two the K Series world and just so happens that I pick up a K20A3 and a K24A4 from a local junk yard for $1200. I understand that it will cost a lot of money to place one of these motors in a EG. However, my question is. What is the best one from these two that I got to keep if I decide to try and put one in my 93 Civic DX Hatch?

According to people who actually have real world experience, a 6 speed k20 tranny's gear ratios are way too short too use with the torque of the k24. From what I hear, you'll never hook up.

I'd stick with a k24 tranny.
