    difficult of dropping in compared to the b16 is the same. just drop in and wire it up.
    b18c2 for sure, but if u want- put a b16a gearbox onto the motor. short ratios.

    c2's go for around 2.5-4k now days

    I'd go B20VTEC with a B16A head. Otherwise I'd go B18C7 or JDM B18C. Would consider B16A or B18C2 a bit of a waste of time when you can pay just a bit more money and get much better results than what the B16A or B18C2 would yield.

    I was having similar thoughts on engine swapping.

    Ended up going with b16a2 due to the the price difference from
    B18c2/c7

    I figured from the money I would be saving from doing a cheaper swap I could spend on mods to get my b16a2 running well & hopefully quicker then b18c2
