You could do a b16 for about 2000 or less-160 hp
You could do a ZC for about 1200 or less if you are cheap-130-137 hp
You could do a sohc vtec out of a 92-95 si/ex -127 hp
You could do a b18a out of a 90-91 teg-130 hp and loads of torque.
There is also the "mini me" head swap.

Those are some of the cheaper swaps out there. Send me an email if you have more questions

go ZC if you don't wanna spend alot of money. it's cheap, easy and a real good bang for the buck swap. if you got the money to spend then i would say go b16 vtec. simple as that...it all comes down to how much $$$ you wanna spend and how fast you wanna go!

whichever u decide, good luck!
