The B16A would be the easiest and cheapest by far, the B18C would be just about as easy but the purchase price much more, however the extra torque would be great in the light EG chassis.

The other two would be prohibitively expensive but K20A is the ultimate.

b16a is a 1.6L dohc vtec with about 118kw

as for prices please refer to this thread. http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/announcement.php?f=17&announcementid=12

your best bet is to either search or ring up some workshops in your area.
