If you can answer then do so but please do not just advertise for other forums on HCF.

B16 is worth nowhere near what they go for. They are high compression, small displacement engines that are allready high strung.
B18C1 is about the best bang for the buck as far as B series vtec engines

i don't give a **** if it's from another forum, if you consider that "advertising", then too bad, i guess you'll have to get over it. i only offered him help by referring to different threads that have already covered this decade old topic. i'm not just going to throw in my opinion when there's no "right" answer (in his situation)

It may be a old topic but it is something that has merit to be discussed here.

i just wanted to give him some different opinions, and i didn't feel like arguing with anyone over the topic, just trying to avoid argument.
