My vote is for the B16.

I'd go for the B16A.....lot more HP than the ZC, and doesn't cost nearly as much as the B18C.

Even though Sacicins calls the B18c the "holy grail of the B-series" it'll end up costing you way more than that $3,000 sticker price.

the B18 is expensive...but the entire thing (engine, wire harness, axles, tranny, mounts, everything...) can be had for about 5500...depending on how hard you look. theres a site where you can even add an LSD and they'll install it for you for just 200 bucks. then find a B16A head for 500 and put that on...you'll be set for boosting at just over 6k...a LOT cheaper than some other options you face that will match it

edit: oh yeah...the site...http://www.jdmcustoms.com
