Default Which one to get?

Right now I'm running a B16 in a 95' civic coupe. I either want put the LS block in or a B20 which would you recomend either way I go they will both have forged intenals. I just want to get some ideas here what do you guys like. The Head is going to stay stock for awhile until I get some more cash. Which way would you go. And if I go with a B20 my tranny and everything will bolt up to it right.

Sorry if this has been asked alot.

b20 has more displacement but also costs 500 more for the block than an LS does with a little bit less displacement. i did a lsvtec because a buddy of mine had a LS block laying around. but most b20's will make more power and more torque than a LS. it all depends on how you wanna go and how much money you are willing to spend, and how much power you want to make.
