Talking new guy on the block

What's happening HCF members, my name is Mike and I am from alabama. (don't hold that against me) I have a 93' dx h/b. I have been checking this site out for a year or so. I have to say this site has been a great help to me. I know a little bit about civics, considering i have owned them all my life, but i don't have the indepth knowledge of getting the most out of them. So, here i am like a 5th grader studying for a test.

d16z6 bored 20 over and resurfaced
oversized oem rebuild kit
d15b head (checked for wear and resurfaced to match)
tenzo c/a/i
upper and lower stabilizer bars front/back
Kyb struts
dropzone coilovers

h/e to come soon.

The car had a d15b in it when I bought it but the timing belt broke while I was driving. So, after I made my wife believe I just had to rebuild my engine just to get around town. I decided to do what I did just to see how it would work. And lucky me I had a d16z6 from a previous h/b but the valve cover bolt holes were stripped in the head. So, now I am sitting here with a d15b block and a z6 head, trying to figure out which one I would like to rebuild and do a turbo application on.
