well, if money is no object...get the prelude engine..that's the strongest engine, u can conceivably fit in there, but it'll require custom mounting, and wiring..and some $$$...if u want a stock lookin swap w/ respectable power..go w/ the b16 or ZC..or if u want decent power go w/ the mini me setup, which is jus slappin on a D16z6 head and valvetrain, from a 92-95 si/ex..if only u had the si, not the dx tho.....which is the most cost effective...and u get vtec! lots more combinations u can do...i.e. LS/VTEC...B20/VTEC head...the possibilities r endless

what?
dont get H22, its too heavy and u'll have hard time in corners, get the B18CR if u can find one, its the perfect match
